Verdict

NORTHERNPOWERHOUSE ran into trouble at York when bidding for a hat-trick. Bryan Smart’s charge gets another chance given he beat Arbalet at Redcar back in June. The latter has a shout once again and is preferred to stablemate Young Fire while Breath Of Air should appreciate the return to today’s trip and drop in class after struggling over 6f at Newmarket. War Glory is much better on the all-weather while Sermon’s recent win at Wolverhampton came in a maiden and Cold Stare is preferred.
