      Verdict

      Lucinda Russell’s stable looks as though it’s running into form and she had the winner of this last year. Topham Bay was only fifth of seven on his debut at Kelso but wasn’t disgraced and will know more today. New Granada is closely related to winners on the Flat and over jumps and is an interesting newcomer for Chris Grant. Beyond The Clouds is a half-brother to all-weather winner Moonlight Venture while a market move for the presenting gelding Booyakasha would be significant. But ARAKHAN was noted staying on strongly over 1m5f at Doncaster and should appreciate the longer trip. He holds Paddyplex on that run.
