        Verdict

        The give in the ground will help GREATNESS AWAITS (NAP), who is overdue a first victory of the campaign after a string of consistent efforts in better company. Malcolm is 0-8 but should run his race again while Chepstow runner-up Edinburgh Rock looks to be back on track. Away Wit Da Fairys has won at Polytrack and Tapeta but was well beaten on his only previous try on this surface so Aurora Papillon may be the pick of the remainder.
