Verdict

It may pay to chance former Irish based runner MOUNTMELLICK GIRL on her debut in England with the booking of the champion jockey a clear signal of intent. Also expected to play prominent roles are veteran Red Admirable who ran well on return and Walter Oneeightone who looked a different proposition last time out with the addition of a tongue-tie.
  1. Mountmellick Girl
  2. Red Admirable
  3. Walter Oneeightone
