Verdict
TOGA TIGER goes from strength to strength and arrives on the back of a hat-trick at Brighton. He won't be winning on the bridle like last time given a 10lb rise but there's no reason to think he's stopped improving and he can go in again. Whitby Jet is usually thereabouts off his current mark without being good enough while Carlisle winner Copperwood remains hard to predict after a poor effort last time. Prince Namid finished closer at Bath last month and Red Shuttle could run into a place once again judged on his third on the Rowley track here in May.
