Verdict

This has the potential to turn into a last-man-standing contest, with five of the six wanting to either lead or push the pace, and that last mile will seem like double to a few of these. KNOCKANRAWLEY won't mind a slugfest at all, given he stays much further than this and won't mind the ground either. He's taken to outbattle Catamaran Du Seuil, who could be reaching for the oxygen tanks late on, and Silver Tassie, the one hold-up horse in the race, who can come through for the bronze.
  1. Knockanrawley
  2. Catamaran Du Seuil
  3. Silver Tassie
