Most of these can be given a chance though Creek Harbour‘s victory at Wolverhampton came over 6f. Glamorous Force won over the minimum trip at Ffos Las and Blue Venture scored at Chepstow and is preferred to stablemate Top Boy. The latter finished behind runner-up Thegreyvtrain here last month but AIRSHOW may prove the one to side with. The top weight hasn’t won on Turf for a long time but last week’s half-length defeat here suggests Rod Millman’s charge can get his head back in front.
