Verdict
Carrigdhoun won this last year and has scored twice more at the track since so has to be respected, though was 12 lengths behind winner Ballyben at Perth last month. Palm Grey won twice here last year and his defeat of The Clock Leary at Wetherby in the spring is working out well but stablemate I JUST KNOW (NAP) could be worth following this season. A progressive sort at the start of the year, his third at Ayr in April looks solid form and he's capable of better still. Vic De Touzaine still has his stamina to prove having failed to complete at Cheltenham in March, though he's another with scope.
