Verdict
SULOCHANA defied a 6lb rise to complete a double over today’s trip with a comfortable success at Nottingham. She still looks ahead of the handicapper on that evidence and is worth sticking with. General Zoff has improved for a switch of yards though drops down in trip for this while Tigerten’s recent second also came over 2m. Winklevi’s placed effort here came over 1m2f while Leoncavallo returns to the Flat having undergone wind surgery since last seen over hurdles.
