Verdict

Cliffs Of Capri hasn’t won since landing last year’s inaugural running on good ground but is now back on a winning mark. Greenside has been running well at Sandown without winning though prefers a faster surface nowadays and RAYDIANCE makes more appeal in today’s testing ground. Beaten only a length at Ayr recently, he can return to winning ways with a leading amateur in Simon Walker doing the steering. Parys Mountain won under today’s rider at Chester last month and should go well again but Marshal Dan has recorded this year’s wins so far on fast going. A maiden winner in France, Rafiot goes handicapping for the first time on his debut for new connections.
