Verdict

LE GRAND LION has a lengthy absence to overcome yet he returns to action from a potentially lenient mark for a yard going great guns and in a first-time tongue tie he could just be worth chancing with Harry Cobden an eye-catching booking. Herakles Westwood has developed into a most likeable sort and he's highly respected in his bid to land the 4-timer. Canty Bay is another to note with his stamina now tested further.
