Verdict

There is little between most of these at the weights and Revolutionary Man arrives in good form having finished in front of both Man Of The Sea and Pour La Victoire in a selling handicap at Lingfield before winning over 7f at Kempton. But HIGHEST MOUNTAIN scored over track and trip in November and may prove the one to side in this grade with Tom Eaves taking 5lb off his back. Michele Strogoff can also do better at this lower level but Word Of Honour faces a tough task on these terms.
