Grigorovitch, The Jobber and Holbeck Ghyll are all last time out winners and are the three to consider in what is nonetheless an open race with Grigorovitch good value for his narrow win last time taken to score. Holbeck Ghyll ran up a hat trick last year and registered his first win of the campaign at Goodwood last time. He is nine pounds higher here though and that may stop him following up. The Jobber is not the most consistent but ran well to score at Newbury last time, scoring narrowly in game fashion. A Lingfield winner earlier in the year he is respected but under a six pound penalty he is opposed. Touched off at York, Grigorivitch got up to score on the line at Newcastle on his latest start. That was his first win of the year but he looks progressive, and was good value for his Newcastle success as he overcame trouble in running. Grigorovitch can follow up.
