Verdict
ASHJAN has been in good form here since a tongue-tie was reapplied. He returned an easy winner over track and trip recently and may well defy a 7lb rise. Dubai Guest was still well beaten when third at Fakenham while Knocknamona won at Newcastle earlier and is preferred to stablemate Shaws Bridge. Croagh Patrick has undergone wind surgery and may prove best of the rest.
