In depth
Verdict
Tomshalfbrother remains 8lb higher than when scoring at Chelmsford in March and returned a beaten favourite at Yarmouth last time. Garth Rockett has been raised 5lb for winning over track and trip back in February but Daring Guest has a shout having finished runner-up at Windsor, though rarely gets his head in front nowadays. EQUIPPED struggled at Chepstow last time but is proving best on the all-weather having won over course and distance earlier in the year and going close here again last month. She gets another chance with the likes of Kath's Lustre and Pettochside having both gone off the boil lately.
