Griffin Point is a consistent sort and seems sure to be thereabouts again in this grade. Cristaliyev finally got off the mark at Bath last week but has a penalty to carry here while Welsh Inlet hasn't shown much lately, though is now well treated as a result. GLADIATRIX races over the minimum trip for the first time but has got her act together at Bath lately, scoring twice over 6f. She may well be improving quickly enough to complete her hat-trick as Simon Walker's presence in the saddle is a massive plus.
