Verdict

Grayswood has shown his best at Kempton so far but Al Furat was beaten only a length off today's mark over track and trip in August by Tinseltown. Both of the latter pair could figure once again. Fisher went close over hurdles last month and may get involved back on the level but fast ground is a worry for recent Pontefract third Gold Show. Danehill Flyer and Madrasa have something to prove off their current marks, so a chance is taken on top weight and course regular GRAN MAESTRO as he drops back down in class.
