Verdict

CHOOKIE AVON stands out on recent form. He scored in soft ground at Newcastle earlier this month and, despite a 5lb rise, Keith Dalgleish's charge appears to have little to fear from today's opposition. Eilean Eeve ran as though something was amiss behind the selection last time, but had gone close in better company before that, while Broughtons Silk had also been placed before a dire effort on her latest outing. Benny The Bear won on fast going over track and trip last month but has failed to figure since, while Refusetosurrender and Beachwood Bay haven't shown a great deal so far though do have scope for improvement.
