Verdict

CATHEDRAL (NAP) has obvious claims having failed by only a head when third over track and trip a fortnight ago. Garry Whillans' 5lb claim can swing things in his favour in a poor handicap. Highsalvia Cosmos is only 2lb higher than when scoring over 1m4f at Kempton in February while Black Iceman recently won over timber and was placed here in April off a higher mark. The veteran All The Winds has also been hurdling of late and is 5lb lower than when scoring at Wolverhampton last year.
