Verdict
Indian Tinker never looked like catching King Crimson at Brighton and may not be capable of reversing the form, despite a 4lb turnaround in the weights. Imperial Legend hasn't won for more than two years but that last victory was off a 6lb higher mark and he's been knocking on the door again lately. Cruise Tothelimit can't get much lower in the weights and wasn't beaten far last time when fourth at Windsor while Point North is still capable of giving his younger rivals something to think about. DAWN CATCHER took this last year and is now 2lb lower. This is the first time since that she's competed at this level and a repeat could be on the cards.
