Verdict
Third Of The Third looked beaten when falling in Lord Grantham's race over a shorter trip here last month and has a bit to prove now. Fishing Bridge won easily over 2m4f here in March and is open to further progress, as is Bangor third Accordingtojodie over the longer distance, but FORRESTERS FOLLY looks the one to beat. He only gave best close home to Courtesy Call at Taunton last time having won a strong-looking maiden hurdle at Ascot earlier.
