        Verdict

        Lennon will be all the rage here and can justify favouritism at the expense of Baffling Secret, My Best Secret and Buttress. Lennon shaped like a certain future winner when chasing home Rasharrow at Wetherby a fortnight ago and with the ground in his favour, can go one better. Rasharrow's trainer Len Lungo may once again will provide the main dangers, saddling both newcomer My Best Secret and Baffling Secret. The latter has had two runs already, on the latest occasion finishing third to Blue Buster at Sedgefield. Mick Easterby is never one to leave out of calculations in bumpers either, and if Buttress is anywhere near fit then he too can take a hand. He has been rested since toiling behind Rebel Rhythm at Wetherby in March and will come on for the run today. With normal improvement, Lennon should now know enough to open his account.
