Verdict

TAPLEY clearly appreciates a sound surface and is taken to gain a second C&D success following his March victory off 3lb lower. The nine-year-old drops in grade after his recent third at Newton Abbot and this appears to be a fine opportunity for him to strike. A first-time visor might aid the cause of Bagheera Ginge on his first outing since October, while King Roly is entitled to bounce back from a below-par outing at Perth.
