Verdict

Not an easy race to work out with a few of these looking as though they would be better over shorter one who shaped well last time and has won over further is SCOOBY who is more consistent than most of these and from a yard going well at the moment may defy top weight in this. Towering is capable of entering the mix if his temperament holds together and he can repeat his last couple of runs. Suggestion is another who is sure to strip fitter this time and can’t be ruled out along with Courtlands Prince although this trip did look to stretch him before as it did Stratford selling hurdle winner Royal Beekeeper although given his connections he must be respected.
  1. Scooby
  2. Towering
  3. Suggestion
