Verdict

MAJOR GATSBY is well handicapped now and gave a clear indication that he's ready to capitalise when fourth (closer to the early pace than ideal) at this course last time, so he gets the nod over the in-form Deacs Delight, who was hampered late at Chepstow recently. Proud Fairy is also considered.

  3. PROUD FAIRY
