      Verdict

      Sea King failed to cope with a 9lb rise last time and drops back down in distance while Thundering has been raised 6lb for last month’s course and distance success. PRIDE OF PRIORY (NAP) has also been upped in the weights having returned to form with a victory at Kempton but he beat a subsequent winner on that occasion and the Haggas yard has an impressive strike rate at the track. Haveyoumissedme drops down in trip after a good effort over a longer trip here while Faylaq is dropping down in class.
