Verdict

Positive tactics and testing ground have suited TORCELLO in his last two starts over 1m2f winning by an easy 6L last time under the excellent Megan Nicholls who takes the ride again today; a hat-trick looks a distinct possibility. Crystal King probably ran better than his final finishing position last time and he’ll have a chance if his quirks can be kept in check. Lightly Squeeze returned from a fair layoff to win comfortably at Haydock returned to the Flat; he’s got scope for improvement along with Top Power a lightly-raced 3yo, a group that have dominated the race in the past. Chesterfield is worth noting in the market on his return to the level, looking well weighted on his jumping form.
  1. Torcello
  2. Top Power
  3. Lightly Squeeze
