On a winning mark and good run after an absence at Huntingdon, staying on well to finish second to course specialist The Jugopolist. Drop back in trip is a concern (wins have come at 2m4f) but this is a weak event, and with no fears over the ground, holds a leading chance.

8/1
Shown little under both codes in two runs this winter since coming back from a six month absence and although he may strip fitter for those, needs a huge turnaround in form. Ground another concern and an unlikely winner.

5/2
Put together a consistent sequence of runs last summer, often going from the front and mark looks fine on those efforts, but no form to speak of on soft/heavy and a four month absence to overcome too. Will be of more interest this spring once ground quickens up.

4/1
On the downgrade these days and more letters than numbers in his form figures, but does pop up occasionally when the ground is soft/heavy and turned in one of his better efforts at Plumpton last time, finishing third to Yourholidayisover. Chance if repeating that, but consistency has never been a strong point.

Forecasts

Eaton Rock (11/10), Deise Vu (5/2), Goring Two (4/1), Edgar (8/1)

Verdict

A great chance for EATON ROCK to get on the scoresheet, with doubts about all three of hs opponents. He himself has the question of the suitability of the trip, as two miles would appear on the short side for him but the combination of ground and the punishing final hill will both help in that regard. Guessing Goring Two's going days is a game in itself, but conditions here are fine and he can pick up a share of the prizemoney. Deise Vu would be happier on quicker ground but may hang on for third. 1. Eaton Rock 2. Goring Two 3. Deise Vu
