Verdict

MAJOR VALENTINE made all over this C&D last time and he can complete a hat-trick of wins here despite his 7lb climb up the weights. The gelding is in great form and is unlikely to be reeled in during the closing stages of this contest. Gambon will be staying on strongly at the finish to try and catch the early pacemakers and he shouldn't be far away as he looks to follow up from his success over this C&D off this 6lb higher mark, while A Sure Welcome is stepping up in trip and is likely to be running on into the placings in the closing stages.
