In depth
Verdict
DUN TO PERFECTION (NAP) won here in May and has been narrowly beaten in a couple of subsequent starts. He can land this dropping back down a grade. Allez Cool is another to consider having finished runner-up here on his recent comeback but W Six Times remains 9lb higher than when scoring at Ayr earlier in the year. Mrs Grass came good over 2m here recently and should go well again raised 5lb.
