Verdict
Pinnata is 3lb higher than when winning last year’s renewal and will be sharper for a recent comeback run at Newmarket. It's Not Unusual was beaten only a neck here last time having landed a double before that but Craving never figured on his handicap bow here having won a maiden at Southwell earlier. London has been thereabouts over 7f recently and is another to consider but DOLCISSIMO makes more appeal. The latter went close in tough handicaps before beaten only a head over track and trip last time and should make another bold bid in this.
