Verdict

Dolos doesn’t win as often as he should and there is a slight concern regarding today’s going. Softer ground would also have been preferable for Adrrastos while it’s doubtful that veteran Cut The Corner will have the pace for this nowadays. Dandridge hasn’t won in more than three years but SOLAR IMPULSE was more like his old self when given a confident ride at Bangor last month and is still well handicapped if travelling as kindly around here.
