Verdict

GRAYSWOOD took advantage of a much lower Turf mark to score at Bath after a fine run in a better handicap over this course and distance. He's a late maturer with more to give and can complete the double. Shahrazad has won twice here though both times over 7f. He won over 1m2f at Newbury in August and he's done reasonably well in his two starts over this trip. Ebony Roc won a class 6 handicap over track and trip last month and is 6lb higher but the lightly-raced Everlasting Light could prove a threat though she didn't prove conclusively that she stays this trip last time. Knight's Parade has won three times over the trip but never on the all-weather.
