Verdict

Last year's winner Bridge Builder and Strategic Heights are closely matched on their recent Kempton clash. Marginal preference is for Strategic Heights who did not have the best of draws there and whose front-running style will ensure he takes some catching from a handy berth. Compton Prince and Mossgo like it around here, but both look better in lower grade races. Secret Strategy likes Brighton so the undulations here will not pose a problem. However, there has been some give in the ground for his two successes. GOLD CLUB has started life well for his new trainer and has a good draw. He arrives fresher than most and on an upward curve. He is closely matched with Indian Affair on running here last month, but should turn the tables as that was his first run after an absence.
