Verdict
Gweedore has been consistent enough on the all-weather but has gone up in the weights without winning. G For Gabrial has done his best on ground with give so some rain would aid his cause. Little Ted finished over six lengths behind MOONLIGHTING at Thirsk but showed the benefit of the run with a comfortable victory on a return visit. A penalty hands the initiative back to the winner who can complete a quick double. Aiden's Reward landed a poor-class handicap at Newcastle in February but almost completed a double when beaten a nose at Thirsk a couple of weeks ago so has to be respected.
