In depth

Verdict

Graystown is 11lb higher than when scoring over course and distance in October but he’s shown nothing since. TRESHNISH (NAP) had to be ridden out to hold off First Revolution here last month and is 6lb worse off. But Sue Smith’s gelding was in the process of improving on that effort when falling at the last here 10 days ago when well clear – compensation awaits today with a clear round. Mah Mate Bob has a lot to find on that latter run if both complete but he will strip fitter today.
