Verdict
GIVE IT SOME TEDDY has a good strike-rate and took a further step forward when making a winning return to action at Redcar. He’s only 3lb higher and, from the inside berth, can complete the hat-trick. Autretot is a front-runner so a wide draw is not ideal while Me Too Nagasaki and Harbour Vision will need to translate all-weather form to Turf but Confrontational handles both surfaces and Secret Return was in good form in the autumn. Big Storm Coming showed nothing on his reappearance and needs fast ground.
