Mrs Greeley has only gone up 3lb since winning at Yarmouth but this is a slightly better race and she may find one too good in CHAPTER AND VERSE. Mike Murphy's six-year-old hasn't won for the best part of two years but is now very well handicapped as a result and his latest fourth at Windsor suggested his turn wasn't far away again. The three-year-olds Dixie's Dream and Restaurateur enter the reckoning while Daruband and Rough Rock are previous C&D winners, though both disappointed last time.
