Verdict
Woolfall Sovereign won this in 2012 having arrived with a previous victory under his belt. He's following the same path here having scored on New Year's Day and, though several of his rivals are in very good form, he looks certain to make a bold bid for the double. However, those who saw ZAC BROWN (NAP) storm clear of his rivals at Chelmsford last week won't want to miss him despite a 6lb penalty. This will be his first start on the track but his trainer knows what's required and he should go in again. Scarborough is also penalised for a comfortable victory here a week ago where she made all but she's held by Royal Bajan on a previous run and the latter is well held by the selection on Chelmsford running.
