Verdict

MEGALITHIC looked a work-in-progress in his qualifying runs and the combination of 7f and the switch to a nursery is expected to elicit an improved showing. Moon Sniper is back in much calmer waters and is a definite threat from stall 2, with Sunday's Carlisle winner Greek Gift also of interest.
