Verdict

This isn’t a deep race to end the card with ANCIENT ASTRONAUT looking likely to be able to follow up his Thirsk win against a bunch that have had enough chances and he did win with a bit in hand last time. Captain Bob will more than likely travel through the rest as well as anything but his finishing effort always leaves a lot to be desired. East Coast Lady is effective with an easy lead although she’s not guaranteed to get one here with Out Of The Ashes and Rockley Point capable of making a race of this although a place may well be the limit of their ambitions.
  1. Ancient Astronaut
  2. Captain Bob
  3. Rockley Point
