Verdict
Model Guest returned a losing favourite in novice company last time and remains without a win after 19 attempts while Southwell regular Al Suil Eile’s only win so far came over 6f. Defence Treaty placed over a mile at Doncaster having slipped down the weights and could figure and Sirius Slew has a shout back on a winning mark but INSURPLUS is preferred. The latter finished in front of Nordic Fire when going close over track and trip a week ago and can race off the same mark with an apprentice taking 3lb off his back today.
