Verdict

Grand Passion, Gentleman's Deal and Millville look the three to concentrate on in this listed race and the vote is given to Gentleman's Deal. The selection was behind Grand Passion last time out but is one pound better off for a short head beating and he is taken to regain his revenge. Grand Passion is sure to have his supporters and if it became a tactical affair it would suit him more than the selection and he should be watched in the market. Millville was behind the selection last time and is worse off at the weights here so he has a little to find. Of the remainder Troubadour is improving with each run and could go well at a price but he did not appear to stay this trip when last tried over it and with this in mind for the winner we return to Gentleman's Deal.
