Verdict

Stonecrabstomorrow won this off a lower mark last year but can still figure having scored at Brighton on his penultimate start. He's in much better form than dual C&D winner Space Station and makes more appeal than recent Lingfield winner Rezwaan, who is best on the Polytrack nowadays. Great Shot looks stuck on his present mark and Safe House is thoroughly inconsistent so the vote goes to topweight MAJURO. He finished a decent second in this grade at Ayr last month and, with an apprentice taking 7lb off his back today, he's just preferred to Leadenhall Lass.
