Verdict
Several of these like to force the pace including Hyperfocus but the top weight has been done no favours by the draw. Redrosezorro has got the inside berth, however, and will get a tow into the race if he breaks smartly as habitual pace-setter Indian Creak is drawn alongside. Mick Channon’s charge has been hitting the crossbar with regularity but is still 2lb lower than when successful at Windsor just over 12 months ago. Street Life has been proving consistent over 5f and is effective over this trip but TOUSSAROK came right back to his best at Brighton and is still on a decent mark, despite a 4lb rise.
