Verdict
Cabragh beat Pithivier by six lengths at Bangor last month but the latter is now 9lb better off and entitled to turn the tables. Cyclop still appeared to be going well when falling down the far side at Wincanton last time and is eased in grade. Gary Charm has dropped a little in the handicap but Big Casino is hard to fancy on recent efforts. TWOJAYSLAD was encountering soft going for only the second time in his career at Warwick and appeared to relish conditions. He’s been raised 9lb for a 12-length success but that looks fair and there should be more to come from this lightly-raced gelding.
