Verdict
Voi is only a pound higher than when winning at Windsor last month. Casement is better than he’s shown so far this year but Scottish Summit has been beaten twice off this mark since scoring at Nottingham and this looks much too short for Grapevine nowadays. We’ll concentrate on the three-year-olds with ZAIN CITY, a ready winner at Nottingham earlier this month, expected to improve further for the extra quarter-mile so preferred to Rampant Lion, who has been equally lightly raced but is not as certain to stay on breeding.
