Verdict
Definite made all at Haydock before beaten off today’s mark at Nottingham and is now fitted with a tongue-tie. Frantanck was less than convincing upped to today’s trip at Sandown and may revert to his earlier front-running tactics for this. ROGUE ROCKET raced at the same Sandown fixture when beaten over a mile but was doing his best work in the final furlong and this extra distance looks sure to suit. Highland Premiere struggled in a higher grade at Goodwood last time but had been thereabouts before that.
