Verdict

OVERWORKDUNDERPAID has thrived since the switch to Laura Morgan so is fancied to defy an 8 lb hike in the weights and rack up win number three for his new yard. Newberry New got right back on track when scoring at Catterick earlier in the month so rates the chief threat, although Muckamore has the potential to have a say if his wind op has the desired effect.
