Verdict
TWO MILES WEST is off a light racing weight and he could be the one to see off Ring Bo Ree and To Arms. Jonjo O'Neill's charge is notably quirky but Tony McCoy will attempt to bring him into his way of thinking and the gelding should have no issues in relation to trip and going. Ring Bo Ree landed some tasty bets at Uttoxeter and now attempts to step up in class. To Arms won with something in hand at Southwell so it would be no surprise to see Lawney Hill's charge proving popular with the punters. Son Of Flicka is useful though whether he is good enough to defy a mark of 138 is open to question. Tilt has the ability to win something of this nature but Brian Ellison's charge seems to have plenty of demons in the mind and this will be reflected in his odds. Breaking Storm is a genuine sort who needs to beat a career high mark to wrestle the spoils. Two Miles West is prone to the odd off day but if on song, he has more than enough class to be competitive at this level.
