Verdict
Majala bids to follow up his success in this 12 months ago off a 5lb higher mark but he's not been firing this season. Indian Voyage and Quito Du Tresor may find this too tough but Witness In Court was prominent for a long way in the Topham at Aintree and could figure if that hasn't emptied the tanks. Filbert won in this grade at Wincanton in January and, though 8lb higher, can't be ignored but CREEVYTENNANT (NAP), who has won twice over course and distance, looks the one to be on. He jumped from fence to fence when making all over 3m at Ascot last time and that form was franked when third Wayward Prince won the Scottish National on Saturday.
