Verdict
MAKELLYS BLACKPOOL was clearly suited by the stamina test last time at Cartmel. He has a 7lb penalty here but the experienced Harry Challoner is doing the steering and it's hard to find an alternative with Red Solo Cup due to run yesterday at Stratford. The Omen's latest second came in a seller while Secure Investment, Party Girls and Brandy And Pep all lack a recent run.
