Verdict

Las Tunas made all and beat OLIVER’S GOLD seven lengths over track and trip last month but the latter was staying on in the closing stages and is now 8lb better off so could reverse the placings today. Fair Loch continues to plummet down the handicaps but Brian Ellison’s grey looks nearer to ending his long losing run. Reverse The Charge has had a wind operation since failing to complete his hat-trick at Catterick in December but usually struggles in this company.
