Race preview

IRON SHERIFF drew clear of his rivals in decisive fashion in an apprentice contest at Newcastle last time out and it would be no surprise if the five-year-old can repeat that feat in this contest, despite a 7lb hike in the ratings. 2lb of that rise is negated by Jonny Peate now being able to claim his full 5lb allowance and this drop back to a mile shouldn't pose many problems. Swinging Eddie kept on to lead in the final strides at Beverley last time out and demands respect off 4lb higher, while Drakeholes warrants consideration stepping up in trip in these calmer waters.
