Verdict

BESTWORK (NAP) has an excellent strike-rate over fences and bolted up at Kempton last month when Tikken Away was pulled up. An 8lb rise seems unlikely to prevent a follow-up if he’s in the same mood. Mick Thonic is undoubtedly well treated nowadays but continues to disappoint. Calin Du Brizais won twice here last summer but hasn’t raced since September and Moorlands Jack has been off the track since November, though did win here in April last year after a similar break.
