Verdict
Total Assets and Lowanbehold have won the last two renewals with the latter back on a winning mark though the former is preferred after placing at Kelso recently. But MISFITS (NAP) was beaten only a short-head in heavy going over course and distance back in March and a recent second over 3m here to Classical Milano suggests Lucinda Russell’s charge can go one better back over this longer trip. The latter has since been beaten off today’s mark at Carlisle while For Jim returns to chasing after placed efforts over timber though looks high enough in the weights. Graystown is not badly treated on his best form but is unproven over this far.
