The return to this trip will be a significant plus for PATROL, who found things happening all too quickly dropped to 9.5f atWolverhampton 3 weeks ago He has edged below his last winning mark and shades preference in a race where it’s likely to be a case of fine margins. Provided that this doesn’t become overly tactical, Mao Shang Wong will be a big threat, while both Analogical and Clansman should be in the mix, too.
