Verdict
Windsorlot won twice here earlier this year and found 1m4f too far last time but Tony Carroll looks to have a better chance with Thunderoad, who ran well for third here earlier this month though is 0-23. RED GUNNER, twice a winner here, had run well at Bath before getting no sort of run at Chelmsford. Mark Loughnane's charge gets the nod though Plansina is respected as she's now on her lowest-ever mark and has been performing with credit here and at Lingfield. Christmas Night has also dropped to a winnable mark and wasn't stopping on his first start over the extended mile here two weeks ago.
