Verdict
AWAY FOR SLATES will have nowhere to hide if he doesn’t take advantage of what appears a simple opportunity. He was second in a Class 4 handicap over course and distance in November off mark of 120 and is now rated 115. Rock Of Leon has to compete off level weights and is rated 10lb lower. He is fully exposed in this grade, though is the one most likely to profit if the favourite flops gain. The latter’s stable companion, Tekiblue de L'Orme, has yet to show much in the way of ability and the rest are similarly handicapped.
