Verdict

DURHAM (2) was finally able to break through last time and did so in impressive fashion when rattling home from the back. His late splits suggest the rise to 1 ¼m won't bother him and the 7lbs sticks to get him in well at the weights again. Can make it two on the bounce. VALUED (7) has found just the one better in his last three and that form around him reads well for this. Is another that gets the benefit of a big claim. So with even luck he's a good chance to land the winning blow. LUDINA (14) has been much better in her last two when ridden more positively from better draws. At her top now and is another that gets in light. Can break through this time. SUIT OF WANDS (6) doesn't win out of turn but has peaks that measure up. Has a sticky draw to overcome but is in the mix. YOUBEEFORTY (8) has been much better of late when sent forward. Expecting similar tactics, so should give a sight.
