Verdict
Impeach was winning over track and trip for the second time this year when successful on his latest start but has been raised a further 5lb. TOUCHWOOD returned to action with a neck defeat over 7f here recently and, having won over today’s trip at Kempton before that, he gets the vote with Charlie Hills’ yard in fine form. Ooh Is It had the measure of both Show Me A Sunset and Charming Kid when winning over the minimum trip at Wolverhampton earlier in the year while Count Otto completed a double off higher marks at the track at this time last year.
