      Verdict

      Tommy G opened his account with a victory over 7f here last month while Invincible Ridge is upped in class after scoring at Wolverhampton. Royal Brave is raised a further 3lb after landing a double at Musselburgh and Tylery Wonder is another to consider on last month’s placed effort at Doncaster. But STRAIGHTOTHEPOINT gets another chance in a tight contest having gone close on his last three starts now including when caught in the closing stages at Ripon recently and Bryan Smart's charge may well prevail this time.
