Verdict

DANNIOS bolted up under today's apprentice in a much more competitive affair over C&D last Wednesday. Ed Walker's five-year-old also won here in June and he should have few problems defying his penalty against this modest opposition. Norcroft is approaching the veteran stage now and has never won over this trip while Sea The Storm should be treated with caution now after a lacklustre effort when favourite over 7f here last week. The others have a lot to find at the weights.
