New Forest, Giant Leap and Camp Land to match motors but there will be other pressure. MR ENERGIA (6) finished strongly into second first-up, with him and the winner pulling clear of the field. That form has since been franked, and with Zac Purton back in the irons, he will have every chance to go one better. FATAL BLOW (12) has trialled impressively for his return on the poly track here. He steps out over this course and distance for the first time, and he should give a good account of himself. Each way value. NEW FOREST (7) can make the most of a nice swing in his draw, and he should push forward early on. He strips fitter and is more than capable of taking them all the way this time. SOLID SHALAA (4) found all sorts of trouble fresh up and was found to be mildly lame after the run. He has a good draw and is expected to bounce back. Include him in all combinations at what should be a decent price.
