Verdict
Monticello is on a long losing run while Tommaso has won over timber but remains winless on the level. AT THE DOUBLE was only second at Nottingham after scoring over 1m6f at Salisbury, though the winner has subsequently gone in again and Sir Mark Prescott's charge gets another chance with cheekpieces applied today.
