Verdict

This is a decidedly weak Grade 2 and as such may not take much winning. Having been consistent over fences so far and being a runner-up over C&D, GINO TRAIL looks the one to be with. He looks to be improving and the soft ground will be a big bonus for a horse who would be conceding weight all round if this were a handicap. Two Taffs' run last time when firmly beaten as a 1/6 favourite was surely too bad to be true, while Knockgraffon has also acquitted himself well over fences so far. 1. Gino Trail 2. Two Taffs 3. Knockgraffon
