Verdict
Stynes is penalised for winning over the course and distance last week. He beat PETRIFY a couple of lengths but the latter re-opposes on much better terms and can turn the tables. Captain George finished behind the above pair last time having landed a double at Wolverhampton earlier while Dynamo scored over 2m at Lingfield before clipping heels and unseating his rider back at the same track. Rosie Royale won twice over shorter trips last year and attempts 1m6f for the first time today.
