Verdict

Chepstow fourth Global Thrill is eased in grade and still coming down the weights. He has every chance of opening his account for the season while Lettheriverrundry runs in his first handicap having shown promise in novice events. But Ikrapol may need more time and Scooter Boy has been well beaten over a longer trip at Warwick after springing a surprise at Huntingdon. STEEL CITY is 3lb lower than when only beaten a length-and-a-half in this last year and hinted at a revival last time at Sandown – it may be his turn today. Grams And Ounces is still 5lb higher than for his last win.
