        keen in touch, wide into straight 2f out, kept on, not trouble leaders

        In depth

        Verdict

        Sir Geoffrey looks a shade high in the weights judged on his recent efforts but is still capable of taking this if allowed an easy lead. Baby Strange has a chance in this company but is returning from a lay-off, while Liberty Lady had Falasteen behind at Kempton when sixth on her reappearance and she should have come on for the outing. However, GREEN MANALISHI has been running well in decent company over 6f recently and today's drop in class and distance could be just what Kevin Ryan's charge needs to get his head back in front.
