Verdict
West With The Wind showed a big improvement over fences last year and is potentially well handicapped on his return to the Flat, while Salontyre has claims off his current mark. Boa is not easily dismissed stepping up in trip and Hawridge King could figure, but Markington was still beaten seven lengths when runner-up at Beverley recently. MONEY MONEY MONEY continues to improve and landed her third race in four starts when scoring on the turf at Lingfield last time. Rod Millman's mare doesn't look like she's finished yet and gets the vote to go in again.
