Verdict

Court In The Act won well last time out in a similar contest and with conditions sure to be similar he should go close despite his rise in the weights and he looks more reliable than Doctor Green who would win this easily on his old form but he appears to be on the downward curve, Martin Pipe's other runner Susejabha with McCoy on board could be the main danger but although she travels well in her races she finds little off the bridle however the drop to this grade should help. Sleeting has become disappointing of late but he should appreciate the drop in class and if he can bounce back to form he should run well at a fair price. The Cottonwool Kid could also be worth a cautionary look in the market as he may have needed his latest runs and any market support should be heeded.
