Verdict
Hoy Hoy has been a beaten favourite the last twice but still just about sets the standard here on the back of a fair third at Chepstow last time. Likely to improve for the quicker surface, he's tempting to row in with but a chance is taken with the likely Fahey second string on jockey bookings in the shape of SARANTA. She shaped well on her debut here last season and was well supported on her return to action at Newcastle when coming home in mid-division. Dropped in trip now, she's afforded another chance to confirm the promise of that debut. Stable companion Highland Rebel is also noted under stable jockey Tony Hamilton whilst Alpine Flower and Sleeping Apache are also respected.
