Verdict

A familiar tale here with Pat Smullen and Colin Keane looking likely to battle this out. Preference is for Smullen's mount ROSE ANJOU off bottom weight. She has been in good form lately and ran well here again last time off the same mark Silk Cravat is in equally good form and the only reason he isn't preferred is the extra 3lb he carries today. Mr Ormsby has run well the last twice and will be better over 7f than when last seen so he certainly merits respect.
  1. Rose Anjou
  2. Silk Cravat
  3. Mr Ormsby
