Verdict

Tarooq and Perfect Pasture return from a lay-off but both are capable of going close if anywhere near their best. Barracuda Boy had Fairway To Heaven back in fourth when scoring over track and trip recently but is up in class while Boom The Groom has been running well over 5f but has something to prove over this longer trip. Hasapop has yet to win in 10 starts on the all-weather so a tentative vote goes the way of OUT DO. He's won two of only three starts on the all-weather and beat Lancelot Du Lac and Steelriver in this grade at Kempton a fortnight ago. He should go close again in a highly-competitive sprint.
