Verdict

Tornado In Milan has been hurdling recently but returns to chasing off a 3lb lower mark. All Together is the youngster of the party but is enjoying a successful campaign and only 3lb higher than for his last win at Leicester, though was well behind the consistent Big Jim at Warwick earlier. Whispering Harry is the only course winner in the line-up and is no forlorn hope but PRESSURIZE (NAP) should take all the beating as he accounted for Sandy Beach at Taunton in January and then pulled clear of a subsequent winner at Wincanton – he has very few miles on the clock for his age.
