Verdict

Black Caesar is one of the few in this who specialises at this 7f trip. With plenty of pace in the race he should find it run to suit, however his effectiveness on this track has to be taken on trust. MAJESTIC MOON is another who is better at this specialist distance, but arrives having proven his effectiveness on the surface last time when fourth behind Muqarred over a mile. On today's terms the seven-year-old can reverse the form. Muqarred is a course specialist and is feared with the strong gallop likely to play to his strengths, a remark which also applies to Bounty Pursuit. Bold Spirit just failed to land a gamble here last time and should go close again. Malaspina won well on her GB debut and a 6lb penalty may not stop this prolific winning mare. However, as one of four potential front-runners, this may a race that lends itself to a strong finisher.
  1. Majestic Moon
  2. Bold Spirit
  3. Muqarred
