GORDON BENNETT left his low-key 2-y-o form a long way behind when making a winning handicap debut on his reappearance at Navan in April. He is taken to follow up here, perhaps at the chief expense of Fine Distraction, who has slipped to an attractive mark and his latest effort was encouraging. Recent C&D winner Cnodian needs considering, too, while Kharma is worth a second look now handicapping.
