Verdict

The four-year-old Searching may not have given his true running last time at Sandown. Epsom Flyer keeps plugging away and should be thereabouts again while Planetoid won at Plumpton in February and was successful on the Polytrack at the start of the month. Colin Tizzard's string is going great guns and his SARTORIAL ELEGANCE made no mistake here last time. He should handle the drop back down in trip and Paul O'Brien's claim largely negates a 7lb hike in the weights.
