Verdict
The Grey One has won twice over course and distance at this time of year and has to be respected from tonight's mark but preference is for the less exposed CONFRONTATION. The David Simcock-trained selection started handicapping from a mark of 65 at Kempton last time when he was not asked too many questions, and he will appreciate the better part of another furlong and a 3lb drop, so we will side with him. Royal Willy would be interesting if backed, while Yourgolftravel Com made the frame here for the first time on the Polytrack last month and is not ruled out. Just Timmy Marcus is weighted to get competitive.
