Sprinter should be well suited by dropping back to 5f

2.05 Hamilton
SP forecast 4-5

Scorched home by six lengths on soft ground in the Super Sprint at Newbury last season, but similar form when close fourth in Listed contest on good ground at York, so drying conditions not an issue. Didn’t stay 7f on first outing this term in March, but lasted longer over 6f at Newcastle last time and this drop to 5f will help. Highest-rated in the field and gets weight from his two biggest dangers.

Conclusion Everything looks perfect for a return to winning ways.
