Verdict
Sanches makes a quick reappearance after a slightly disappointing effort here on Wednesday. He’d earlier beaten Malt Teaser and Bartholomew J over track and trip but recent Kempton runner-up CONKERING HERO makes more appeal. The latter won here last summer and Joseph Tuite’s charge has slipped back down the weights subsequently. Ban Shoof scored over 1m2f here recently and has won over today’s distance before. He’s preferred to Strictly Art whose earlier success at the track came over 2m.
