Verdict

TWOSHOTSOFTEQUILA arrives at the top of his game and can race off the same mark as when an excellent second at Sedgefield so gets the nod in a competitive handicap. Uttoxeter-scorer Sullivan's Brow has more to offer now going back up in trip and is greatly feared, although fellow recent winners Enlighten and Son of The Somme both warrant plenty of respect too.
