Verdict

SOBER UP hadn't shown much before romping home at Chelmsford, making all and never looking likely to be caught. He's been hit with an 11lb rise but is probably still ahead of the assessor. Johnny B Goode won a 6f seller at Thirsk and has never scored over a trip this far while Swiss Cross hasn't won for almost two years though that's reflected in his handicap mark which is 22lb lower. Harbour Patrol takes a slight drop in class and has travelled a long way for this while Pyla will love the fast ground better than most.
