Verdict

Mallt and Seven Year Itch look out of this at the weights and Dr Albert posted a poor effort here last time, although a 7lb claimer helps his chances today. Clean Bowled has yet to win a race but his placed efforts on the Polytrack give him every chance in this company, though CROWNING STAR makes more appeal. Stan Moore's charge has been running well over 7f recently and with today's longer trip expected to suit, he looks capable of getting his head back in front here.
