Verdict
Maninsane and Trapista finished second and third respectively behind Grandeur Dame here a month ago and there shouldn’t be much between them today but both have to give weight to GREAT HEART’JAC, who won at Leicester in December. Charlie's Glance beat only one home on his chasing bow and was well beaten.
