Verdict
This is a competitive opener but Putdecashonthedash finished a long way behind FAVORI DE SIVOLA here before winning in a lower grade at Plumpton. Ede'iffs Elton was only beaten a head in that former contest and bolted up over track and trip last month but is 5lb worse off with the winner. Oscar Robertson was a fair second at Hereford last time and is only a pound higher while Poppa Poutine just came up short here two runs ago and came up against an improver next time at Sandown.
