Verdict

Uriah Heep has been in action over fences but is potentially well treated on his return to the Flat. Cape Victoria has hit form with a vengeance and Edward Greatrex won on her here last month so another big run is anticipated, despite the penalty. Mister Rockandroll is still a maiden on Turf but should put that right before long and is worth another try over this sort of trip. THE GAY CAVALIER has been running much better than his form figures suggest. He won off a higher mark at Kempton in February over 1m3f and repeat of that effort here would probably suffice. Song Light has had a break since scoring over further at Nottingham in May but can't be ignored.
