Verdict
LUCCOMBE DOWN has been beaten less than a length in both starts to date at Kelso and Sedgefield. He can make it third-time lucky here getting 7lb from January's Musselburgh winner Coozan George, who has already been beaten under a penalty. Solway Prince improved to finish second at Perth last month while Preacher's Belle is worth noting. She only beat one home at Catterick in February but that may have been a decent contest. Cyrius Moriviere looks nothing special on breeding but may prove the pick of the newcomers.
