Verdict

ROLAND is the one to beat on his earlier win at Warwick. He failed to cope with a 7lb rise in better company last time but should come out best dropping down to this level. Avatar Star has already come up short in plating races on a couple of occasions and Baltic Gin is preferred on her earlier placed efforts over today's trip especially as one of those came in soft ground. Tiger's Home has a second over 7f on the Polytrack to her credit but it's difficult to find any form to recommend the remainder.
