A few of these are eased in grade but that's because they've become disappointing. Trojan Sun, Unknown Legend and Sharivarry are better over fences but Follow The Tracks arrives in excellent form having narrowly failed to land the hat-trick at Fontwell last month. Esteepee finally showed signs of life when third at Taunton in March but still has to give 6lb to BAND OF THUNDER. Mark Tompkins' gelding came right back to form at Plumpton 10 days ago, despite racing freely, and should take all the stopping here despite the penalty.
