Verdict
Larkbarrow Lad has a chance at the weights in this but was disappointing last time at Exeter when well behind stablemate Truckin Away, who was returning from a break. Roll Again is one of three course winners in the line-up and he led onto the final circuit on his reappearance at Carlisle before a lack of condition told. Over To Sam is also potentially well treated and Townshend is back on a winning mark. SUMKINDOFKING has had excuses when pulled up the last twice. Tom George’s thorough stayer is now racing on a lower mark than when placed at Catterick and Musselburgh at the start of the year and has gone well around here in the past. He could be overpriced if first-time blinkers have the desired effect
