Verdict

Grand View, aided by Kieren Fallon, can gain another course and distance success, with Master Rattle and Bells Boy's others to consider. Grand View made up for an earlier defeat at Warwick when scoring at Lingfield at the end of April, but never threatened when fancied to follow up at Ayr last time. The gelding had been afflicted with muscle problems and there is always the suspicion that there was something amiss at the Scottish track, so it might be prudent not to rely too much on him to land the spoils. However, the fact that John Weymes has booked the champion jockey gives cause for encouragement, and with the ground in his favour, this moderate contest is there for the taking. He will come out of stall five, but his main rival Master Rattle, is housed high in 15. A winner at Les Landes three weeks ago, he at least lines up with a win under his belt, although to put it in context that was his first career victory. Bells Boy's has been plying his trade on the all-weather of late, and although reaching a place or two, is hard to fancy strongly. For the winner we return to Grand View.
