Verdict
Lilywhite Gesture has been dropped 3lb since finishing last of four at Ludlow but she'd been beaten twice off this mark previously. Magic Money has been beaten four times since scoring at Bangor in March and was 14 lengths behind Very Extravagant here in May. Warren Greatrex's mare in now 8lb better off but it shouldn't be enough to turn the tables on Barry Geraghty's mount. EARDISLAND has two ways of running but would be a danger to all if on a going day and can take advantage of this slight drop in grade. Aunty Ann makes her handicap debut but looks harshly treated and Book At Bedtime may have to wait a bit longer to open her account over timber.
