Verdict

Tonto's Spirit is likely to attempt to make all in order to repeat his success in this contest in 2017. The fact that he races from a 7lb higher mark today isn't a concern (he has won off a mark of 121 previously), but the opposition does appear slightly stronger this time around. Both recent C&D winner Black Art and the Haydock eye-catcher REVERANT CUST should to be doing all of their strongest work late in the race, and this is likely to leave the early pace-setter vulnerable on the climb from the final flight. The Peter Atkinson trained seven-year-old relishes soft ground, and working steadily back to form, this looks the time to catch him right.
