    Verdict

    SOLAR VIEW missed the whole of last year but made a winning reappearance at Yarmouth last week. He may not have finished improving yet and makes more appeal than recent course and distance winner Annaluna. The latter steps up in class today and this also looks tougher than Jezza's latest task at Kempton where he finished runner-up. Our Folly still looks in the handicapper's grip and Arty Campbell has struggled off higher marks since winning on the all-weather in March.
