Verdict
Eyze has finished in the frame in each of his last three starts, latterly when a nine-length second to Red Man over course and distance at the last meeting here, and is taken to go one better today at the main expense of La Luna and Reivers Moon. The last mentioned has shown only a modicum of ability so far but may be open to improvement. Noel Chance¿s La Luna, who is entitled to step up on her reappearance effort behind Toi Express at Exeter last month, holds more solid claims. Loudy Rowdy is moderate at best, while Greenfire is held by the selection on running here last time, form on which Eyze should take plenty of beating.
