Verdict
Dont Be Robin has a chance at the weights but Good Man Vinnie is hard to catch right nowadays while the going is likely to be too quick for Summit Like Herbie. Cobra Commander has gone up 9lb for his win at Taunton though is still getting 7lb, taking into account his rider’s claim, from LE TUEUR. The latter doesn’t look an easy ride but he doesn’t lack stamina and his yard won the inaugural running of this last year. Motown Lake was only fourth when favourite at Wetherby after winning at Uttoxeter and has no form on going this quick.
