Verdict

Gworm is also declared to race on Friday Evening, so his participation must be questionable, whilst the 2017 runner up and fellow Ayr (and Tapeta) specialist Testa Rossa meets stronger opponents this time around. Mordin is a late developing horse on the upgrade who'll be very tough to beat given his rock-solid formlines, but the Michael Dods-trained MOOLTAZEM appears to have truly blossomed this month and could prove strong enough to make the step-up in grade just nine days on from his authoritative 1m2f Haydock win.
