Verdict
Sheila's Treat won at Yarmouth last month but was a prolific winner on the all-weather in Greece for previous connections and has to race off a 17lb higher mark back on an artificial surface. Itsakindamagic is usually thereabouts at this level without winning but SAMPHIRE COAST (NAP) is at his best at this venue having won five times here in the past. He’ll need some luck in-running from a wide draw which is something he failed to get on his latest visit but should still be in the mix. Call Me Grumpy was placed at Sandown when last in action but that was in September of last year while Pinnata went close over track and trip a fortnight ago with London back in fourth. Global Art and Redgrave are preferred to Glory of Paris over today’s trip.
