Verdict

Voice Control has been dropped in the ratings just enough to get into this moderate handicap but potential supporters would need to forgive a very poor run at Windsor last month. Mister Rockandroll's only victory has come on Polytrack and though that was from a 6lb higher mark he's shown little in his three latest starts and is tried in first-time blinkers. Aussie Berry can do better now stepped up to a more suitable trip as can Racing Knight, who was staying on strongly over 1m2f at Leicester and has had just five starts. DEW POND is another lightly raced type and he showed his first real sign of ability at Beverley last time when chasing home Avenue Des Champs, who was completing a double. With further progress likely, the son of Motivator can get off the mark.
