Verdict
Five last-time-out course and distance winners here including Take My Hand, who is up 5lb for scoring at 33/1 three weeks ago, though his rider can claim an extra 3lb this time. WYCHWOOD WHISPER made a successful handicap debut last week and a 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent a quick double though Indiana Grey has only gone up 3lb for last month's narrow victory. The latter had earlier finished a close fifth behind Blankiedoodie, who was scoring for the first time here but had previously finished over three lengths behind Ellabella, who benefited from an enterprising ride. Any money for Royal Hideaway, who has changed stables, should be noted, a remark that also applies to the reserve Misty At Sea.
