Verdict
GRIGGY continued his good progress with a wide-margin success at Wolverhampton last time. Sean Curran’s charge has a hike in the weights to contend with but the form has worked out well with third-placed Swissal subsequently winning. The latter finished in front of Fancy Flyer when scoring over 7f at Chelmsford and should be in the mix again but Black Isle Boy has plenty to find with the selection. Hey Ho Let's Go has been running well at Southwell but has yet to win in 13 attempts.
