In depth

Verdict

Performances in the spring suggest course and distance winner Mohi Rahrere is on a downward spiral nowadays. Susquehanna River is back in the right grade but hasn't been seen since refusing at Haydock in May and Settledoutofcourt also returns from a break and needs it softer than this. Valleyofmilan couldn't cope with the step up in class here last time but was racing from out of the handicap and has a much better chance in this. It's surely only a matter of time before WHISTLING SENATOR gets back on track as he's tumbled down the weights and was just beaten off today's mark at Warwick in November. He gets the vote today, though Ultra Light won here last month and should make a race of it.
