Verdict
Silva Eclipse has found some form at Doncaster in recent weeks and remains potentially well treated. Winningseverything has been rested since a poor run at Aintree in December and is probably worth another try over 3m. WELSH SAINT needs a thorough test of stamina to offset his lack of pace. Dropped another 2lb since his latest third at Doncaster, he might be some value in this running off a similar mark to the less-exposed pair Serious Charges and Pulling Stumps. Grace A Vous Enki didn’t beat much at Hereford and has been disappointing overall but Illegal Model could be interesting in first-time blinkers and following wind surgery as he runs in the same colours and for the same yard as last year’s winner.
