Verdict

Celestation continues to go close but she's becoming a bridesmaid a little too often for our liking and we'll take MULLIGATAWNY to jilt her at the altar. Amazingly, the ex-Jessica Harrington inmate is yet to score on turf, but his sixth in a valuable handicap at York reads well, and a reproduction of that effort should suffice. He was ahead of Jacbequick when the pair last met at Ripon and he can confirm placings. Aelius worked hard for victory at Nottingham and a 5lb rise seems fair. X Rated made all to win at Bath a couple of starts ago though he was comfortably held at Hamilton on Thursday. Marmion is a previous winner at the course over further. He was tried in a hood for the first time on that occasion but he's been well beaten in two subsequent tries in it since.
