Verdict

Harry Potter has won his last two races and might just be capable of completing the hat-trick here at the main expense of Sea Storm and Raphael. The selection showed a real turn of foot to defeat Brazilian Terrace at Nottingham, and although that was only a narrow win he looks capable of going in again on a track where he has won before. Sea Storm and Raphael are closely matched on their recent run at Newcastle, when Raphael finished second behind True Night with Sea Storm back in fifth. They are both in good form at present and it would be no surprise to see the pair of them involved in the shake-up. Abobe was well beaten behind our selection last time but he goes well on this track and could be capable of getting much closer here, but Harry Potter is in good form at present and looks the one to beat.
