PILEUP has been thereabouts in recent weeks and the market continues to champion him on regardless. If Karl's Berg Did earned a rating of 110 in his prime and managed to finally get off the mark at Fakenham when dropped to just 77. Minella Youngy had some fair form for Gavin Cromwell and the market has been receptive in recent appearances for Iain Jardine. Black Lightning has served up a pair of credible efforts under today’s rider and it would be no surprise to see him taking a hand in this affair. Nastasiya is stepped up in trip in an effort to break a losing run while Times Are Blue is tried in blinkers.
