Verdict
A couple stand out at the weights but question marks hang over both. The only time King Torus has encountered soft ground was in France last season where he was well beaten. In contrast, Sarrsar has won in the mud but dropped tamely away at Ayr last time confirming how inconsistent he is. It could pay to take them on with HUNG PARLIAMENT, who will have come on for his recent comeback and landed a Listed race in testing ground at Longchamp last year. The remainder have plenty to find on today's terms, though Stevie Thunder and Hot Rod Mamma have winning form on today's going.
