Verdict

MARK’S CHOICE recorded his fifth win at the track on his first outing after wind surgery. He drops down a couple of grades for this and Sam England’s charge should confirm running with I Am A Dreamer. Case Key struggled at Newmarket having landed a Class 6 sprint at Nottingham earlier while both Princess Power and Wade's Magic have placed over the minimum trip recently with the former preferred at this level. Ustath has proven best on the all-weather so far.
