In depth

Verdict

Seas Of Green had tumbled down the ratings prior to springing a surprise at Warwick but she’s 11lb higher here and much better at that track than anywhere else. Star Rider, useful on the Flat, made a winning start over timber at Fontwell but was only third at Wetherby subsequently. Tara Mist has an absence to overcome but did win over track and trip in 2014 following a break. TOBERDOWNEY landed a gamble at Wincanton having finished second over this trip at Warwick earlier. She may be worth following now going handicapping but Tullow Tonic looks to be in the assessor’s grip and Marvellous Monty is struggling to get her head in front.
