Verdict
Rod Millman sets a poser by saddling Wrecking Crew, a model of consistency on the all-weather and runner-up back on turf at Windsor last month, and SHY. Preference is for the latter, who won twice off higher marks last year and looked to be on the way back when third to the progressive Tweedledrum at Chepstow two weeks ago. Diamond Twister and Carr Hall both made the frame last time and aren't without a chance, but Galiotto is 5lb higher than when landing an ordinary contest on fast ground at Lingfield earlier this month. Astroleo's Brighton win has been franked, however, and he could go close again.
