Verdict
Gannicus has only won a Fakenham maiden so far and was due to run yesterday at Wincanton. SHRUBLAND has been raised a further 3lb since narrowly failing to complete the hat-trick at Huntingdon but that run proved his stamina and he looks the one to beat again. McKenzie's Friend has flattered to deceive in the past but Bowie usually runs well here and will be all the better for last month's third. Green Zone was in good form in the summer but the handicapper has been in charge lately.
