Verdict

Keidas, Cnoc Moy, The Grey Berry and Celtic Change make it onto the short list here, with the selection being The Grey Berry. Keidas has been raised four pounds for his good-to-firm Notttingham win and, even though he is untried on going with ease in it, he should continue to progress and can go well. Cnoc Moy was a good Lingfield all-weather winner last time and has to be given some thought even though he has been raised 11 pounds for that and is now debuting on Turf. The Grey Berry posted an improved effort when winning at Newcastle over today's trip last time and he too has to come firmly into the reckoning. Celtic Change is another improver - he is set to go up by three pounds in future ratings - and, given that the step up in trip and the ease in the going could both suit him, he too has to be granted respect. Of the others, Super Cross comes here on the back of a fair Musselburgh effort and is lightly-raced and open to improvement, although he has no soft-ground form, and Mountain Cat put in an improved effort on the all-weather last time and could be open to further improvement on Turf. Once again, though, the selection is The Grey Berry.
