Verdict

Cassivellaunus has changed stables having won here on heavy going in February. Highway Star has never won and has only raced on good going while Golden Cannon, an easy winner from BROTHER BENNETT here last month, is 10lb higher and facing much softer ground. The runner-up, a winner over fences here in April, could never get back into the action after a bad mistake three out but stayed on late and can reverse the form under the revised terms. Seaweed showed the occasional glimpses of ability in Ireland and Chris Gordon will get the best out of him.
