Verdict

LUJEANIE has slipped down the weights and, after a third to Goldream here a week ago with today's rival Piscean just behind, he gets the speculative vote in a wide-open affair. Gap Princess will find this much tougher than her latest success at Catterick but recent Pontefract winner Orbit The Moon should figure again and confirm running with Fred Willetts. Julius Geezer has won three times this season and may have more improvement in him while Rocket Rob was well backed at Lingfield last time, though could only manage third.
