Verdict

This may not be as competitive as the numbers suggest. Few of the lightly raced runners appeal as the type to be excited about. Dyna Might has fluffed her lines at he start but has seen out her races well and should improve for his longer trip if ready for her seasonal debut. Love And Be Loved looks ready for this test having produced her best career effort last time. Cliff Bay maintained his rate of improvement on his latest start in the first time cheekpieces and his stable have been going well. At the foot of the handicap SKILFUL LORD arrives on the back of a couple of eyecatching runs when he has not been unduly punished but has run better than his final placings suggest. His yard had a winner on Saturday and the rider has a good strike rate for them.
  1. Skilful Lord
  2. Love And Be Loved
  3. Dyna Might
