Formscan - Allo Allo is effective on the front end and is likely to make this a good test if he runs his usual race. That scenario will ideally suit UPTON ROAD, who went close when second over a similar trip in a higher class off this mark two starts ago. He should be doing his best work at the finish now back down in distance and the booking of 3lb claimer Liam Harrison further enhances his appeal. Gamaret is also taken seriously but he has a question to answer over his stamina, especially under top weight.
