In depth
Verdict
Mister Wall Street raced at the Cheltenham Festival earlier in his career and Ferdy Murphy's charge has to be treated with plenty of respect despite an absence of over a year. C&D form can count for plenty around Sedgefield, and, on that basis, it's hard to overlook TAHITI PEARL. The handicapper has predictably put him up plenty for his two victories this season but, having narrowly missed the target at Doncaster, he should be capable of going in again. Indian Groom had form on soft going during his days with Howard Johnson. He did disgrace himself with two mulish displays last season but if John Wade has managed to sweeten him up in the interim, the handicapper has given him a chance while Wilde Pastures will improve for his reappearance three weeks ago.
