        Verdict

        THE GREAT WALL can make the trip over from Ireland worthwhile by landing this. Beaten only a length at Dundalk last time, he just missed out over 6f at the Curragh before that and is weighted to get the better of Arnarson. The latter drops back in distance but was runner-up at Wolverhampton back in June and should have the measure of the returning Pudding Chare. The remainder with a handicap mark have plenty to find but the newcomer Port Soif is a half-sister to a winner on the all-weather and worth a second glance.
