Verdict

Teshali deserves a change of luck after seconds at Ludlow and Taunton but he's still creeping up the weights. Drussell also appears to have been nailed by the handicapper and was behind Teshali and Rowlestone Lad last time but Tealissio should do better now back over a more suitable trip and Calaf's latest third at Musselburgh was a decent effort in the context of this race. CRAFTY ROBERTO took advantage of a lenient rating to score at Market Rasen last month and races off the same mark as when second in this 12 months ago. He could go one better this year.
