Verdict
Plenty of course winners to choose from in this. Star of Spring won easily over track and trip last month but that was her first success in 21 attempts and she’s upped 7lb. The Magic Pencil won here earlier but was well beaten at Wolverhampton off today’s mark last time while SWANSWAY beat Bromance with a bit to spare over course and distance on his latest start and is fancied to confirm running despite the revised terms. Orlando Rogue was runner-up here recently to Rock Warbler, due to run in the previous race, and is another to consider.
