Verdict
GREENSIDE drops in class and may be the one to side with on last year’s second in a valuable handicap on soft ground at Ascot. He finished in front of the re-opposing Cold Stare on that occasion and Henry Candy’s charge will be sharper for last month’s return. Riviera Nights has his second outing for Roger Varian and should be winning again this year while Lincoln Park went close in a lower grade at Chelmsford recently and is preferred to Concierge, who has proved best over shorter trips so far. Three Saints Bay finished closer last time having slipped down the weights while Get Knotted returns from a lay-off.
