Verdict

This looks to be a straightforward head to head between Northern Tennessee and Sonevafushi, with little to separate the two on paper. The former has progressed the better since racing on faster ground and he has displayed a good attitude when asked for effort in his races. He will again have Tony McCoy on his back and could take all the beating. Sonevafushi has so far failed to live up to he British debut performance but has to feared with his stable in flying form at present. Any rain would be much appreciated by him though.
