Verdict

SUPREME THUNDER (4) was allowed to drift back from an outside draw last time but found the line strongly to finish fourth here. Drawn much kinder this time and if he's a couple of pairs closer, he'll prove very tough to stop. DON'T MATTA ME (7) returns from a short break. Mixed his form last time in but showed a strong turn of foot on his day. Is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and is worth monitoring for market support. ILIAD (10) gets the blinkers on first time after a disappointing effort at Stony Creek. Has jumped out well in between runs and is worth including on best form. DIADOCHOS (1) was too bad to be true last start and has since been freshened with 61 days, keeping the legs ticking over with a trial. Drawn sticky but holds genuine claims on best figures. Don't dismiss.
