Verdict
MY DAD SYD ran green on debut at Doncaster but was still an impressive winner. He has more on his plate here but has any amount of scope and Paul Hanagan has a good strike rate when teaming up with old boss Richard Fahey. Fellow northern raider Dragon King will appreciate the easier surface and has each-way claims again but Foxtrot Knight struggles to get home over 6f. Speedy Move has been raised 5lb for his Haydock win and Kassbaan has gone up a similar amount since scoring at Windsor and is another who is possibly best of 5f. Them And Us faces a tough task conceding weight to less-exposed types.
