Verdict
Strong Man finally got off the mark over 7f here last week but a penalty could anchor him in this while both of Lindoro's all-weather victories came at Southwell. The latter's new stablemate, Heroine Chic, has claims on her form at Dundalk but preference is for CLIMAXFORTACKLE. Last season's C&D winner is back on a winning mark and a repeat of her third at Newmarket in June would be good enough to get her head back in front in this company. Land Hawk makes most appeal of the remainder back at this track.
