Verdict

Ranco is hard to catch right but SAMATIAN won his his reappearance last season and his yard has hit form with a vengeance in the last week. Though 6lb higher, the six-year-old may be the one to be on here. Top Cloud was carrying overweight when landing a gamble at Stratford last month so is theoretically still well treated but Mactavish was well beaten at Newton Abbot after going close at Uttoxeter.
