Verdict

FOCACCIA went close when finishing runner-up on his most recent handicap outing in the spring and can register a first victory by defying top weight today. The selection is likely to appreciate the return to 2m having finishing runner-up over further last time out and can see off the improved Knight Commander who was successful over C&D in July. Maximus Maridius, runner-up in handicaps the last twice can claim third on this occasion.
  1. Focaccia
  2. Knight Commander
  3. Maximus Maridius
