Verdict
EAGLE EYED TOM placed here before scoring at Beverley. He’s switched yards subsequently but has scope for further progress. Hey Lyla won at Chelmsford recently while Green Power scored at Kempton but failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time. Equion won here earlier in the season and is preferred to Masterpainter.
