Verdict

Gworn won this last year off a higher mark and could figure again while Robinnielly is upped 7lb for winning at Hamilton last month. Royal Regent failed to cope with a rise in the weights at Carlisle having won here earlier while Navajo War Dance and Archippos are only maiden winners. The latter has a bit to find with NICHOLAS T (NAP), who struggled in Class 2 company here three weeks ago but was beaten less than a length in this grade on a couple of occasions before that. He finished ahead of Corton Lad over track and trip in June and still has scope for further progress.
