In depth
Verdict
COMMANCHE FALLS (NAP) has continued his good progress this year winning two of his three outings so far. Another bold bid is expected from Michael Dods’ Stewards’ Cup entry and he can reverse earlier running with Rathbone on today’s fast going. It was soft ground when the latter scored over track and trip and he’s gone close again at Hamilton since while Gale Force Maya could only manage third when sent off favourite at York last time. Seas Of Elzaam has won twice at Catterick this year and is preferred to George Bowen and Wentworth Falls.
