A good quality sprint with five of the seven runners having already won over C&D but it’s one of the two runners who hasn’t won here that is the suggestion to open his account over this 5f in the shape of EXCESSABLE. He’s been threatening to come good of late and favourably handicapped here and with the beating of two of today’s rivals he looks set to open his account for the year. Lomu certainly came right back to form last time and although he’s well drawn in this small field to repeat those front-running tactics he does have to do so over 5f and off a 9lb higher mark. Royal Brave can always be relied on to run his race here but may just come up short.
