Verdict

STRATEGIC HEIGHTS has a sporting chance at these weights if in the mood and the nine-year-old is taken to regain the winning thread. He is 11lb better off with Bernie's Boy for their last meeting. Any market interest in It Must Be Faith should be noted as this gelding is thrown in on the pick of his old form and didn't shape bady last time after a break. Top weight Pulsating always seems to run her race and won't be far away, while a decent display from Desert Fox isn't ruled out either.
