Verdict

A poor turnout though that won't concern Robert Cowell whose GRAND BEAUTY is the standout entry. She's no world beater but showed potential in her two runs last season and only faded close home over Beverley's very stiff 5f on her reappearance earlier this month. It's difficult to see where a challenge will come from as Art World ran poorly here a couple of weeks ago though that was his first start since January and he at least showed a bit of dash at Wolverhampton. Cardinal Sin was up with the pace for a long way over 6f at Hamilton and should be suited by dropping back in trip.
