      Verdict

      Llewellyn found one too good again at Thirsk last Saturday when Solar Spirit finished fifth and it could be a similar story here with former stablemate SNOW BAY in opposition. The latter scored for his new yard at Thirsk last month and remains on a decent mark compared to his best form despite a 7lb rise. Best Trip looks high enough in the weights at present and was well beaten on his return but Orpsie Boy is back on a winning mark for his seasonal debut. The remainder are harder to fancy and make little appeal.
