Verdict
Newton Abbot winner Surfboard finished tailed off at Fontwell two weeks ago and it's difficult to see how he can reverse that form with runner-up Winning Show here. Tegan Lee could only finish fourth off the mark at Southwell last time, while the handicapper appears to have Sovereign Spirit back in his grip and Public Esteem has been beaten in claimers recently. TAKE A MILE reverts to hurdles for the first time in 18 months but does so off a reasonable mark and must go close if a spell over fences hasn't blunted his speed.
