Verdict
Roughlyn is 6lb higher than when winning under today's rider at Lingfield last month and may not confirm running with third-placed Baan on worse terms. Goldan Jess went close over C&D in November and has a leading amateur on board today but preference goes to PASSATO. The latter won one of these events at Warwick in June, the last time he raced on the Flat, and arrives fit from hurdling. Mcbirney, Stormy Morning and Augustus John are others with claims.
