Verdict

No surprises if this comes down to a duel between last-time-out Plumpton scorers DISTINGO and Jaisalmer, with preference for Gary Moore's charge. He made an impressive start on his first run after arriving from France when taking a maiden in ready fashion and is open to further progress. Jaisalmer was getting off the mark at the sixth time of asking over jumps and will pick up the pieces if the selection fails to fire. Hard to get enthusiastic over the remainder, perhaps this shorter trip will be of benefit to Don't Tell George, who is at least race-fit.
  1. Distingo
  2. Jaisalmer
  3. Don't Tell George
