SKY PATROL posted his best effort so far when runner-up at Yarmouth and the winner has boosted the form by going in again subsequently. That looks stronger form than Sir Victor’s second at Chepstow while Strawberry Jack disappointed on the all-weather last time having ran well at Newmarket on his earlier debut. Toro Dorado is bred to be best over middle-distances while fellow newcomer Stormy Road is partnered by an apprentice.
