Verdict
Flat winner Mighty Clarets shouldn't be much longer in losing his maiden tag over timber having just been touched off at Market Rasen last Friday. Morestead seems to be running well at present and will set a good gallop over this trip but that could play into the hands of A P McCoy on board STRONGLY SUGGESTED. The latter will need a strong pace after scoring over 2m3f at Market Rasen last month but a 5lb rise looks manageable. Hi Tide and Annelko might also figure but House Party ran a shocker when favourite last time and Warsaw Pact looks a light of former days.
