Verdict
Today's trip is a concern for Sunset Boulevard who has won five times over 1m4f here but LUNAR RIVER has scored twice over C&D and looks set to put an end to her losing run. She can race off the same mark as when finishing a close-up second here last month and David Pinder's charge can take advantage. Ocean Of Peace won here before finishing fourth behind Rustic Deacon and a line through the latter gives him the beating of today's rival Ice Road Trucker, who will be looking to improve in a first-time visor.
