      Verdict

      Smart Connection is best watched having his first run for a new yard. Still unexposed on artificial surfaces, FRANCO GRASSO is back on the same mark as when winning at Yarmouth in the spring so gets the nod ahead of recent winners Jacks Profit and Lednikov, raised 3lb and 4lb respectively. Golden Dove is only 1-19 but seems to have found some form again so can’t be ignored.
