Verdict

There is probably more to come from last week’s Chepstow winner Le Reveur but he does have a penalty to carry and may start at restrictive odds. Penmellyn has each-way claims, as does Bye Bye Euro, while International Lion is worth a market check as he isn’t badly treated on this pick of his form. GWEEDORE has been very consistent and deserves a change of luck so is just preferred to Thirsk winner Moonlighting, who has been raised a further 2lb since a beaten favourite at Musselburgh, and Celestial Wood.
