Verdict
Alfred Hutchinson has won here three times and Lord Of The Land could give a boost to his recent second here in the previous race. Castle Harbour is 19lb higher than when last running in a handicap but he may just have needed his latest run at Doncaster and remains unexposed. Scottish Glen is tough and reliable but Keystroke has become disappointing. Grey Mirage hasn't run since April and has plenty to prove now. GEORGIAN BAY ran well in this last year off a pound higher mark. Though more of a Kempton specialist, he has a decent draw today and could give supporters a run for their money at decent odds.
