ANNANDALE (NAP) overcame a tardy start and trouble in-running to master Taravara close home at Nottingham. The second has since finished ahead of Oceanline at Doncaster when beaten under a length and Mark Johnston’s progressive colt can defy a 7lb rise in the weights over this extra furlong. Otyrar was keeping on over this trip at Redcar and races off the same mark while Surrey Gold could figure if handling the switch back to Turf. Moktasaab has been hanging under pressure in his races to date, however, while Duke Of Verona was no match for an easy Johnston-trained winner at Leicester. Vina Bay has been doing his winning on Polytrack.
