Verdict

This won’t take much winning. GREG THE GREAT was having a first run since October when weakening in the closing stages at Kempton earlier this month in a contest in which the race-fit Sandy Paradise finished second with Calonne fifth – Eve Johnson Houghton’s charge will strip fitter today. Flag Of Truth was only beaten a neck off this mark at Newcastle so can’t be ignored. Rival looks the pick of the remainder.
