Verdict
Ocean Legend looks to be carrying a ridiculous weight but scored under 10-4 in a seller at Windsor in June. Picks Pinta has a chance on today's terms but that was the case at Leicester last time and he was beaten out of sight. Ecliptic Sunrise won at Brighton earlier and has plenty in hand with course and distance winner Brean Splash Susie while Rain God finished tailed off the last time he raced on soft ground. EVIDENT has slipped down the weights this year and he gets a token vote as he made the frame in a tougher claimer at Wolverhampton last month.
