Verdict

Good ground suits SONNY RED and last year's Ayr Silver Cup second is fancied to bounce back to form here taking a big drop in class. Zomerlust also has his sights lowered but his best form has been over an extra furlong in the past. Efistorm has claims on a recent seventh in a better race at York but Bonnie Prince Blue was beaten in a seller at Lingfield on his latest start and is better on the all-weather nowadays. Dispol Kylie has yet to win over this trip while Pontefract runner-up Jigajig may struggle at the weights today.
