Verdict

C&D specialist Picansort looked on good terms with himself when chasing home Mossgo here earlier this month and has every chance of reversing the form on 4lb better terms but trainer Peter Crate saddles another interesting runner in the shape of TAAJUB and he may offer better value from a falling mark, having ran better than the bare form suggests from a poor draw last time. Cherry Cool would also be a threat to all if fully tuned up for her reappearance whilst it will be interesting to see how the in-form Menelik copes with this drop in trip.
  1. Taajub
  2. Picansort
