Verdict

Grayswood is still 5lb higher than for his only win at Bath last year while Ninfea didn't beat much in a Lingfield seller last month and has more on her plate here. Layline won an apprentices' race over a shorter trip here last week so can race off the same mark but faces better opposition now. ROYAL MARSKELL has won over this trip on Fibresand and proved his well-being by scoring over 1m4f at Leicester a couple of weeks ago. He looks capable of defying a 5lb higher mark here as The Ducking Stool, though attractively weighted, has yet to prove that she stays this far.
