Verdict
Oceanus has certainly been knocking on the door and so has Brogan, only headed on the post at Ffos Las last month when she appeared to have slipped her field. Heatongrad has been placed in four of his seven starts but trainer Richard Fahey also run the less-exposed Cool Climate, who ran his best race so far when second last time at Redcar. DUSKER didn't quite get home over 6f at Goodwood in July and has another furlong to cover here. But we'll take a chance that he's strengthened up in the interim as he's probably on a fair mark at present. Tesko Fella is probably best of the two Richard Hannon runners and it would be no surprise to see Hotfill bounce back from a modest run last time at Ayr.
