In depth

Verdict

Foxy Forever and Dynamo Walt both scored in this grade over track and trip last time. They also both beat the re-opposing Arctic Lynx with the former coming out best on collateral form while Desert Strike comes into the equation on his second to Dynamo Walt. Outside of that line of form, STUNNED could only manage third over 6f here last month but had won his maiden over course and distance by four lengths earlier. He gets another chance back over the minimum trip given both Humour and Give Us A Belle are upped a couple of grades for this.
