Verdict
STEPPER POINT achieved a mark of 113 after finishing runner-up in the 2014 King's Stand Stakes and though now down to 87 and a shadow of his former self he's been competing at a higher level than this and looks ready to win again after a close second at Chelmsford. Just Us Two scored at this level at Newcastle and made a bold bid to defy a 4lb rise in a better race than this at Chelmsford so has to be a threat. He holds Monumental Man on that latter run while both Burning Thread and Sandfrankskipsgo look a bit too close to the top pair in the weights.
