Verdict
TOLSTOY will likely be a short price to return to winning ways. Successful on debut at Yarmouth, the Gosdens’ colt has been highly tried since but wasn’t beaten far at Salisbury last month and could find further improvement in first-time cheekpieces. Brighton third Aadel is probably improving but is rated 21lb inferior to the selection and only receives 6lb. Fast Glory’s stable has been among the winners and he is a half-brother to three winners so is worth a market check.
