5/2
SERGEANT FURY needed only to beat one rival to bring up the hat-trick over C&D last month, but he's clearly in excellent heart and a 2 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the 4-timer. Max Of Stars is a course specialist with 3 wins from 4 starts at Newton Abbot and rates a major danger despite being high enough in the weights now. Hope Rising has shown steady improvement in novice company and could play a major role, also.

Race Hints

Specific Pace Hint: Max Of Stars might not get things all its own way near the head of affairs but shouldn’t be held back by that alone: The forecast decent pace still isn’t likely to sway the advantage towards those usually ridden further back such as is Sergeant Fury.
Individual Price Hint: Polling Day traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP, 25% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 3 of its last 5 starts.
