Verdict
It's back to reality for Danny Tudhope after his exploits at Arlington but a winner is a winner and the veteran SINGEUR has returned to the sort of form that will make him difficult to beat in an open contest. Fredricka is on the same mark as when successful at Redcar in May while Seamster gained the 14th victory of his career here last week and a penalty is unlikely to prevent another big run. Star Cracker's two victories have come on ground with some give but Bondi Beach Boy, who won this in 2013, scored at this level at Chester in June and has raced in better company in his two latest starts.
