Verdict
Antony Brittain is striking while the iron is hot with SOOQAAN (NAP), who has won twice around here in the past couple of weeks and is just 4lb higher with his penalty. He doesn't look to have any more to do and General Tufto, who has been placed behind him the last twice, may have to settle for a minor berth again. Street Poet almost lost his maiden tag at Newcastle in November but reverted to type on his next start on this track while Canford Thompson is taking a massive drop in trip. Rivers Of Asia is 0-17 and has never run on the surface.
