Verdict

Twinkled is upped in distance and class and may get found out along with Patriotic, who won a couple of low grade handicaps here last month. Gritstone and Standpoint are other course winners who look high enough in the weights at present, while Veroon is 8lb higher than when beating Thunderstruck in this race last year. The latter can reverse the form on better terms this time around, but he still has a length to find with TEVEZ on running here last month. Des Donovan's charge did well to finish a close-up third over C&D after being badly hampered last time and looks set to strike in this.
