Verdict
The veteran Efistorm is in good form but has a little to find to overturn earlier form here this winter with both Speak The Truth and Cut And Thrust, the latter having no luck in running when behind Conor Dore's charge here last month. Catherines Call gets little respite from the handicapper but he's easing his grip on both Sermons Mount and Yankee Storm and that pair will be interesting when better drawn. Cuthbert isn't without a chance and Super Duplex won at Kempton in January, though could find this test on the sharp side. MACK'S SISTER is only a pound higher than when successful at Kempton in November and has been crying out for a return to 7f. Dean Ivory's mare could be the answer to a tricky puzzle.
