Verdict
CUT ACROSS made a winning debut at Lingfield in February and doesn't have much to find to come out best on his handicap bow. Welsh Inlet was winning for only the second time when successful in soft ground over C&D recently but a 5lb rise may scupper her chances while the returning Stonecrabstomorrow may need today's outing having scored three times over track and trip last season. Ginzan finished a close-up fourth last time and makes more appeal than Court Applause and Bobby's Doll.
