Verdict
SWILLY SUNSET missed the whole of 2016 but found only one too good in a similar contest here a fortnight ago. He may be capable of winning this off his current mark. Placed at Wolverhampton in January, Top Offer can race off a lower mark on this surface while Cooperess was runner-up at Salisbury in October and has a shout on that form. How's Lucy, Lawfilly and Pitch High are less exposed than most and should all be sharper for recent comeback runs.
