Verdict

The veteran WATCHABLE arrives at the top of his game having won at Newcastle before scoring in this grade at Lingfield. David O’Meara’s charge looks worth sticking with given Corinthia Knight needs to find a bit more off his current mark though has the beating of Kick On Kick On on earlier form while Tawny Port’s recent wins have been recorded on the Fibresand at Southwell. The latter’s stablemate Street Parade has had wind surgery since last in action in September while Savalas has plenty to find with the selection on running at Newcastle and Verne Castle could only manage fifth in last year’s renewal.
