Verdict

Archipeligo makes a quick reappearance having been beaten a neck at Hamilton during the week. Sakhalin Star has been placed off today’s mark the last twice and can also figure while Mr Sundowner beat a couple of these when scoring at Wetherby on his penultimate start. Calliope is better than her comeback run at Redcar suggests but HUSSAR BALLAD may well be up to winning this off his current mark having placed at Wolverhampton in both starts so far this year.
