Verdict
MARFORD MISSILE is favoured at the weights once again and can continue his winning ways. He's picked up a hat-trick of plating races on the Turf recently but is equally at home on this surface. Sandbetweenourtoes faces tougher competition than he did when scoring at Lingfield last time and Eternal Gift makes more appeal dropped in class. Island Melody is another to consider back over a shorter trip but the remainder look up against it.
