Verdict

Album bids for a hat-trick on the back of success at Lingfield but is now 10lb higher than an earlier victory over track and trip. Invincible Larne also scored at Lingfield last time with joint-favourite SIR OLIVER (NAP) back in fourth. But the latter ran too free on his first start since August and debut for Chris Dwyer and is fancied to reverse running with the headgear back in place for this. Of the remainder, Strong Power, Second Collection and Steelriver are capable of getting involved at this level.
