Verdict

HOMER STOKES shades preference ahead of Woodrafff, with Spirit of Bowland third on the list and Laura's Breeze best of the rest. Woodrafff thoroughly deserves to get his head back in front but he's been turned over at short odds the last twice and is not always the quickest off the blocks. Homer Stokes returned to form when failing by a whisker at Wolverhampton recently and a reproduction of that will probably suffice.
