In depth

Verdict

Godfrey Street has hit a purple patch for his new stable and needs respect coming here on a high, however preference is for the progressive Ebraam who continues to impress; Silver Prelude makes it to the shortlist. The selection finished in-front of a few of these last time out and whilst he meets them on worse terms following a 5lb rise in the weights, Derek Shaw's gelding shows no sign of stopping. Stablemate Tartatartufata was held behind his friend on that occasion and looks the second string again on jockey bookings, whilst Fyodor is now on a fair mark and needs watching in the betting. Ajigolo has been given a break to recapture his form, whilst Silver Prelude was second behind Ebraam and looks the main danger again. Kevin Ryan should have an idea how his Northern Empire compares to former inmate Godfrey Street, however he may have more to fear from Ebraam who receives the vote.
