Verdict

GODTFRED KIRK (7) has just found one better in two runs this time in, back onto turf here should suit and he gets every hope having lugged a big weight last time. One of the main dangers has come out and he shouldn't have to do much more to go one better here. TOO TOUGH (9) lost the rider at the start last time at Sale but had won his maiden well fresh and was firmly in the market last time - have to give another chance with his lightly raced profile. ILLUMINANCE (11) was okay here fresh, her form last time in reads well albeit she doesn't do a whole lot of winning. STELLAR MOFEED (14) is consistent and racing well with each way claims.
