Race Summary

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and SILVER IN DISGUISE is fancied to quickly resume winning ways having blundered 2 out when a very good runner-up at Perth last time. In-form Cap du Nord is feared most now back in distance having not got home in the Scottish National, while Stormy Flight is another who can have a say provided he is none the worse for his Chepstow mishap.
