Verdict

A weak looking contest on paper and this looks a perfect opportunity for WOLFCATCHERJACK to extend his winning run to three. He has scored in good style over this trip at Kempton and looks more than capable of defying his latest 5lb hike. Best Example has run some promising races on turf lately and could be a danger, while the likely frontrunner Estibdaad should be better suited over this trip than the mile last time. Gabrial The Terror is also weighted to give this a fair crack, if able to produce his best stuff.
  1. Wolfcatcherjack
  2. Best Example
  3. Estibdaad
