Verdict
Rampers won a maiden at Lingfield before showing signs of recalcitrance at Southwell when unseating at the start. Spray Tan only won a Class 7 contest here last month and will find this tougher but MUSTN’T GRUMBLE has a couple of outings under his belt and, having gone close off a 6lb higher mark at Lingfield last year, he gets the nod to come out best. Quality Art has slipped down the weights and, though only fourth here last time, still beat See Vermont, Your Gifted and Charlie Lad so can’t be ignored.
