Verdict

Few arrive in decent form and a chance is taken SOLENT GATEWAY stays this far. The latter went close over 1m4f here recently with both Arabist and Gabrial The One behind and can race off a similar mark. Mancini has won over 2m in the past and slips further down the weights and the veteran Watersmeet is another with previous form. Land Of Winter will be sharper for a recent outing but Overhaugh Street has his first start of the year having won this back in 2019.
