Verdict

A case can be made for every one of these so DARK ENERGY is a purely speculative selection on the basis that he's won four times at this course before. Dorset Naga's winning run came to an end when falling at Wetherby but he can figure with a clear round and Suburban Bay won easily at Huntingdon last week. Strumble Head didn't last home over 3m3f last time but scored at this track before that while Balinroab has ran poorly either side of a win at Huntingdon. The remainder were all placed on their latest starts and are not easily dismissed in a difficult race to call.
