Verdict

There could be a battle for the lead in the early stages of this contest with plenty of pace available from the likes of Turbine, Chronicles, Perfect Soldier and Lucky Mistake. Plough Boy who has been producing solid and consistent performances over the summer without winning and deserves a change of luck and Stormingin, now back to optimum trip can both grab a place while the Ger Lyons-trained GOLD SPINNER is the selection running a cracker finishing third of nine beaten 1¾L behind Not A Bad Oul Day last month.
  1. Gold Spinner
  2. Stormingin
  3. Plough Boy
