Verdict

An interesting contest and PURE VISION may be able to provide punters with the right answer on this occasion. Anthony Honeyball's gelding stays well and acts on deep ground, while he comes here in decent form too. Coo Star Sivola has conditions to suit and is far from written off, but he does have stamina to prove over this distance. Ice Cool Champs is short-listed, though he does have a bit to prove after his chase debut, while Wait is respected and Surtee Du Berlais may yet prove to be the fly in the ointment.
