Verdict

SPRING LOADED finished well ahead of the third Strategic Force when scoring at Kempton last week and can confirm superiority, despite worse terms. Kingscroft faces stiffer opposition than when winning a claimer at Wolverhampton last time so Subversive may prove a bigger threat after finishing runner-up in this grade at Kempton. Nuno Tristan drops back down in class and has a shout on his earlier form at Newmarket while Red Stripes also has claims off his current mark having won here twice already this year.
