Last to break, held up in last, not much room over 2f out, closed going well when not clear run last bend, soon switched left, led 1f out, clear inside final furlong, easily tchd 11/4
Steelriver (5/2), Smokey Lane (5/2), Moon Trouble (3/1), Mujassam (6/1), Rapidash (9/1), Balata Bay (33/1)
A drop in trip and switch to claiming company could do the trick for SMOKEY LANE despite his poor all-weather record. Steelriver has to be a player on these terms while Moon Trouble is interesting if he can bounce back from a poor run at Newcastle last time.
