Verdict

Temple Lord was only beaten five lengths by subsequent Stratford winner Sail And Return at Southwell earlier this month but whether he'll reproduce that here is anybody's guess as he often flatters to deceive. Still Believing is also proving hard to win with but stablemate Sublime Talent won a little race at Chepstow in March and Moorlands Jack has been knocking on the door. HOUSTON DYNIMO's effort here last time was short-lived but this looks easier and David Pipe's charge can get back to winning ways ahead of top weight Daymar Bay.
