Verdict
GRAND ENTERPRISE was only headed close home by Jac The Legend at Sedgefield last month and is slightly better off at the weights. Jamie Hamilton’s mount should hang on this time over a shorter trip. Landecker was placed twice at Kelso prior to his latest fifth at Perth, where he wasn’t beaten far in a blanket finish. He’s back in the right grade today and Bourne may have been refreshed by a short break, though is looking high enough in the weights at present. Bescot Springs won over track and trip in March but this is a better race.
