Verdict
MUSTN'T GRUMBLE made all to win a seller at Ripon last time and similar tactics will probably be employed here. Bill Turner's charge gets the nod to hold off Teversham, who made little impression over 5f on the Turf course at Lingfield last month though this looks easier. Repeat Offender is related to winner and the betting may give the best clue as to what is expected on his racecourse debut.
