Verdict

The veteran Captain Oats finally got his head in front after 34 attempts when scoring at Bath last time. But he makes little appeal off a 6lb higher mark and Glens Wobbly has been upped 8lb after breaking his duck at Bath last time. ROWLESTONE LASS finished well behind the latter at Bath but has since gone close at Nottingham and she gets a token vote in a poor contest. Innoko is closely matched with the selection on collateral form and could also figure.
