Verdict

Trainer David Griffiths has two decent runners in this with last year’s surprise 20/1 winner Archimedes on the comeback trail and his better chance is held by the resurgent PEARL ACCLAIM who now has a C&D record that reads 1121 and won in better grade than this last time. He won’t have it all his own way though with Something Lucky on the up and he may well be able to cope with this grade after winning with a bit to spare last time out. Zylan who needs to bounce back, Crosse Fire and Decision Maker all add to the mix in what looks a competitive sprint.
  1. Pearl Acclaim
  2. Something Lucky
