Ashoka has the bit firmly back between his teeth but is effectively 10lb higher than when completing his hat-trick at Warwick taking into account Harry Skelton takes over the reins from a 5lb claimer. In an earlier run at the same track, he only beat HYLAND a length and that one is now 8lb better off. Eaton Hill hasn’t won in more than five years and will surely need this but Rock The House will strip fitter for a run at Southwell and Eclair Des Sablons went close at Ayr last time. Onesoc is unexposed so should be monitored for any market support.
