In depth
Verdict
Not many can be seriously considered in a poor event and the vote goes to Moral Justice while Twotensforafive and Southerndown look the best of the remainder. The selection goes well on this track and was notching his second course and distance success when showing plenty of resolution to score a narrow victory last month when Twotensforafive was beaten a half-length in second. The latter is 2lb better off and will prove no pushover but has a poor strike rate, whose only previous success came in a seller and may be worth opposing once again. Southerndown is well treated on the form of his treble in similar company last autumn and showed signs of a return to form last time but Moral Justice, who confirmed his well being when chasing home a fair yardstick last time, is taken to come out on top with ground conditions once again in his favour.
