Verdict
STRAVITA has been frustrating to follow of late but we will give her another chance today and she gets the vote over Fine Tolerance, Crimson Flame and Anduril. Reg Hollinshead does well with his runners here and Stravita is certainly a capable performer on her day. She did not have the race run to suit at Southwell last time but she is on a handy mark and we will give her one more chance to recapture her best. Fine Tolerance twice ran well in the summer at Windsor but she has failed to really build on that and her record on the all-weather hardly inspires confidence. Crimson Flame chased home Fantasy Ride here on Monday and if Kickahead goes well in the previous race here tonight then that would give the form a boost as he finished ahead of Kickahead that day. Anduril is capable of claiming some place prize money but he is thoroughly exposed and we will stick with Stravita as the one to beat.
