Verdict

Get Knotted attempts to win the race named after him though there was cut in the ground on the last two occasions he won here. MEDAHIM is preferred now back on the same mark as when scoring at Goodwood last summer and Ivan Furtado’s charge gave notice of a big run today with a close-up fourth at Newmarket last time when ahead of Love Dreams. Penwortham won a lower grade contest at Chester recently with Maggies Angel behind while Wentworth Falls has done all his winning over shorter trips so far. Tommy Taylor hasn’t won since 2017 and Bedouin's Story looks high enough in the weights fitted with first-time cheekpieces.
