Verdict
Wallaroo scored over slightly shorter under today's rider here in July and his latest two runs have been on Polytrack. Tawtheef is inconsistent but has a course and distance victory to his credit while All Inclusive did a bit better when stepped up to this track and trip last time. Darker is 0-13 and though placed at Chelmsford will be having his first start here but OPTICALITY has been placed in both starts here and was returning from a break when not getting the run of the race at Bath earlier this month. Oisin Murphy's presence on Casa Luna catches the eye.
