Verdict

Grand Turina won twice in December but has looked in the handicapper’s grip since and she really needs the mud to show her best. MOLLY CAREW (NAP) has shown a liking for this track in the past and has surprisingly been dropped a further 3lb since a staying-on third here last time. She won off a 6lb higher mark at Haydock last spring and looks poised to get her head back in front. Jubilympics has a poor strike-rate while Found On ran poorly at Chepstow only five days ago but Get The Appeal was second over fences at Kempton in November and is less exposed than her rivals.
