Verdict
Spring Romance has been in fine form at Southwell but has won on the Polytrack before while Storm Over is creeping closer as he slides down the weights. Garth Rockett failed to land a hat-trick upped in class at Wolverhampton and is now 9lb higher than when last successful but Grey Galleon found only one too good off today’s mark at Kempton. POWER OVER ME followed a maiden success at Chelmsford with a win over course and distance on his handicap debut earlier in the week and is taken to defy a penalty with Robyn Brisland’s yard in top form at present.
