Verdict

HASTY SAILOR ran well for a long way at Doncaster on his reappearance. He’ll have come on for that and looks worth another chance back on the all-weather. Second Slip is also capable of better having disappointed at York last month. He went close over 1m2f here before that and is preferred to Firewater, who seems best on heavy going as when second at Haydock last time. Midrarr showed no improvement fitted with a tongue-tie last time and Pearl Beach still looks high enough in the weights but London Arch slips further down the handicap.
