Verdict

Recent Wincanton runner up Lady From Geneva reverts to chasing off an 8lb lower mark. But SYLVAN LEGEND makes most appeal in this having made the frame at Ludlow earlier this month and dropping down a grade off a 2lb lower mark today. Flugzeug landed a double at Plumpton back in April and has returned to a winning mark but Kapricorne remains resolutely out of sorts despite sliding down the handicap. Goring Two is another on the slide and makes most appeal of the remainder.
