Verdict
Both Hurricane Alert and Glamorous Rocket bid for hat-tricks having won lower grades sprints. The former has been raised 3lb for winning on the Polytrack here and the latter is penalised after scoring at Windsor. But ROUNDABOUT MAGIC won at Brighton last month and has subsequently gone close in a Class 4 contest on the all-weather. He can land this with a similar effort and is also preferred to Defining Moment, who remains 6lb higher than when scoring at Yarmouth last year. Spin Top is back on a winning mark and may prove best of the rest.
