Verdict
WESTHAVEN makes plenty of appeal not least because he's the only one in the field who's won a race. He achieved that feat at Lingfield on Saturday and carries a 6lb penalty here, but today's opposition is pretty modest and David Elsworth's charge can follow-up. Revolutionary could prove the biggest threat on his turf debut having finished second at Southwell last time, while there is not much between Delagoa Bay and The Absent Mare on their running behind Dance For Livvy at Wolverhampton in March. Tanjung Agas may do better stepping up in trip on his handicap bow but the remaining duo have shown nothing so far.
