Verdict
Vorashann has won his last two at Fontwell and makes more appeal than stablemate Legal Rights. Tip Top Cat completed a hat-trick at the end of last year but Guernesey has the more recent form, scoring narrowly at Warwick last month. He’s gone up 4lb for that but Jack Martin still claims 10lb. TOP OF THE BILL has been lightly raced to date but there have been definite signs of promise and a mark of 110 on his reappearance may be underestimating his ability. Hasty Parisian may be best of the rest.
