Verdict

Tajheez keeps creeping up the weights despite not winning while Couloir Extreme remains 5lb higher than when scoring at Windsor in June. Grendisar scored over track and trip before finding 1m6f beyond him at Haydock and has every chance but SWEET DEAL is just preferred. A winner over a shorter trip at Goodwood last September, he was having his first start since back at the same track last month and much better is expected here with that pipe-opener under his belt.
