Verdict
Teide Peak won a division of this contest last year but it was fast ground on that occasion. MERCHANT OF MEDICI makes more appeal as he's finally shown some improvement of late for his tumble down the weights including when runner-up at Musselburgh last time. Micky Hammond's charge gets the vote with a leading amateur on board. Flag Of Glory has gone close under today's rider before while Aldwick Bay and Vicky Valentine may also figure off their current marks.
