Verdict
Surety scored over track and trip a week ago and is upped in class carrying 6lb extra. Both Spring Fling and Modern Tutor made the frame on their latest visits to the track while the returning Perfect Alchemy landed a double here last season before scoring at Windsor off a 2lb lower mark. But ACOLYTE is worth sticking with in this on the back of a second on the Turf given Roger Charlton's charge won his maiden over course and distance last year and is back on the all-weather for the first time since.
