Verdict

Eatsleepracerepeat should have done better in this lowly grade at Wolverhampton last time so SANTADELACRUZE is preferred. The latter couldn't prevent Who'Sthedaddy from landing a double when second over track and trip on his latest start but should go close again in this. Understory is usually thereabouts, though his losing run stretches back to 2013 now, but Fair Comment and Western Playboy have a decent shout off their current marks.
