Verdict

Highway One O One makes his reappearance over timber after a solid season chasing last term. He's on a tough-enough mark, but does tend to go well fresh so bares some thought. Chapmanshype is developing an affinity with this track having twice scored and is likely to be in the mix despite an 8lb ratings rise. Trans Express defied fears about going left-handed at Aintree when last sighted and is another capable of going well fresh but the vote sits with THE SWEENEY. He was making good progress with his Market Rasen brace early in the summer and didn't seem to get home on his reappearance at Newton Abbot. This is more his thing and he can bounce back.
  1. The Sweeney
  2. Trans Express
  3. Chapmanshype
