Verdict

Gibside has won either side of a poor effort on soft ground at Carlisle behind Two Brothers. The latter returns to this shorter trip with a chance but WHATACRACKER also scored at Carlisle earlier in the month to open his account and looks up to defying a 6lb rise given the ease of that success. Lizzie Jean and Enthrallment found one too good on their latest starts and the latter is upped in trip along with Dubai Crystal who will relish the underfoot conditions.
