Verdict

Jan Steen doesn't have a lot of miles on the clock and deserves respect in this field on the back of a solid try at Gowran Park over this trip in July, while last-time-out Ayr winner Harry Speed ought to be capable of having a says despite the extra 5lb on board. Accladora may struggle to follow-up her shock Bellewstown win, with the likes of Path Of Silver and Greenpanda more likely to give their running but POWER OF TEN made a decent attempt from the front last time at Bellewstown and might be able to get the job done now over this shorter trip.
  1. Power Of Ten
  2. Jan Steen
  3. Harry Speed
