Verdict

Adeb has been in good form over 6f but has yet to race over this far while Perfect Swiss is usually in the mix but this is tougher than his recent tasks. Gobi Sunset will be sharper for last week’s reappearance at Wolverhampton and Lion's Dream makes his handicap debut with a shout having been gelded and switched yards. But TITAN ROCK (NAP) has been competing in higher grade contests than this and 5lb lower than when last successful, John Quinn’s charge can return to winning ways.
