Verdict
Grandma improved on soft ground at Ayr when finishing third ahead of the disappointing SAMBUCCA SPIRIT. But the latter had completed a double on faster going before that and Paul Midgley’s charge may well reverse running on today’s surface. Gorgeous Gobolina beat Rockley Point when winning a lowly classified event at Musselburgh but is 6lb higher back in a handicap so the less-exposed Dandy Story makes more appeal. B Fifty Two would have a shout if taking part but was due to run at Ripon yesterday along with Rockley Point.
