Verdict

At this track it's important to follow those who stay the trip well, especially over longer distances, and ALTERNATE ROUTE fits the bill here. Sir Mark Prescott's gelding won his only race over 2m and despite not running up to his short odds the last twice this drop in trip in addition to the application of blinkers should help him despite him being 12lb higher than his sole winning mark to date. Good Time Ahead arrives here in good form and also needs considering, as does recent course runner-up Bertie Moon.
