Verdict
Craftsmanship was well supported when scoring over the course and distance last month but a 7lb rise makes this more difficult. Tears of The Sun went up just 3lb for her victory at Brighton but couldn't quite match the pace of Persona Grata here next time and has gone up again. Cayuga has won from a higher mark and ran well at Leicester last time but Silver Alliance, who won very easily at Brighton, is on his highest ever mark as a consequence. If I Were A Boy loves it around here and arrives in winning form but a chance is taken with BERTIE MOON, who showed improved form over hurdles in the spring and is well treated if transferring that progress to the Flat.
