Verdict

William Haggas took the first running of this event and he looks to have a good chance of following up with SOLO MISSION who should be suited by the trip and is now back in cheekpieces replacing the blinkers that he wore last time out. It would have been a surprise not to have seen a Mark Johnston representative in this and Star Of The East and Dominating give him a nice 1-2 punch with both looking improving sorts. Tor would be dangerous if he’s granted a soft lead but does need to bounce back from a below-par performance last time. Pioneertown judged on his last run should be well suited by this trip and adds another dimension to an intriguing contest.
