Verdict

Looking Down is from a stable that has a good record here and he was a good second behind Greek Revival last time out. If he can reproduce that effort he will be hard to beat and is the TEAMtalk selection. Boston Lodge was behind Looking Down last time out and although he is better off at the weights, may struggle to reverse the placings. Just A Martain was third in the same race and he is the least exposed of the trio, but that was a marked improvement in form and it is debatable whether he can reproduce that effort. Pantone has been beaten favourite on a couple of occasions on turf and he needs to show improved form on this surface to score. King Revo was fifth in a fair nursery last time out at Redcar behind Rutters Renegade and if he takes to the surface is another to consider. A market move for Rodeo Drive would be significant as he is well weighted on his best turf form.
