Verdict

Overlaw needs faster ground to show his best and has over four lengths to find with SLEEP IN FIRST on latest running. The latter survived a last-fence scare to score at Sedgefield last month and can confirm superiority despite the worse terms. Morning Time and Emirate Isle finished further behind the selection last time so Turf Trivia makes more appeal on his recent fourth at Catterick. Monsoon Music and Avanos have both failed to complete since winning over fences last year but Soul Angel had gone close at Kelso before unseating on his latest outing. Twice Lucky and course specialist Prince Tam look best of the remainder.
