Verdict

GARSTANG's latest run at Kempton was too bad to be true as he'd been in fine form on the Polytrack before that. He's certainly best on that surface but is worth sticking with in this company allowed to race off a much lower mark back on turf. In fact, it's hard to be confident about any of today's opposition as Amno Dancer's recent all-weather form is nowhere near as good as the selection's and last year's C&D winner Whats For Pudding is having her first start since November. See The Storm could make the frame if putting his best foot forward.
