        Verdict

        Cavalier Approach was narrowly beaten at Musselburgh when ahead of Cuban Rock but is upped in class for this. GRANDAD BOB was making his seasonal debut and having his first start after wind surgery when runner-up at Catterick so Paul Midgley’s charge may prove the one to side with. Castan and Sparkling Red ran below par on soft ground last time while Tyke and Storm Fox remain unexposed.
