Verdict
Several have been thereabouts on the all-weather lately including Port Erin and Last Hoorah. Nasim and Give A Little Back finished runner-up on the Polytrack while Enola Grey went close in a lower grade at Southwell. But SHEROOD arrives on the back of a third at Newmarket on his handicap debut and Ed Walker’s colt may prove the one to side with in an open contest.
