Verdict
Perfect Pasture attempts to repeat last year's win in this off a 6lb higher mark. But he has a bit to find on last month's running here with runner-up BOOM THE GROOM (NAP). The latter has subsequently gone close again with Secondo and Fairway To Heaven behind and can deservedly get his head back in front. Diamond Charlie also has something to find with the selection while Money Team is upped in class and Magnus Maximus remains 10lb higher than when last winning.
