Verdict

This is potentially tricky with Granville Island and Newberry New having been in good form lately against tamer opposition. The latter may be ahead of the game having been a useful hurdler in Ireland who has been turned around by cheekpieces. Rock On Rocky can hardly be argued to be attractively weighted but his Ascot second commands respect in this company. Icing On The Cake is back in the right grade and more attractively weighted nowadays, but O'Maonlai has proved disappointing. BEGGAR'S WISHES will appreciate these conditions and a recent break. This looks easier than either of his last two races and his stable's horses are in form.
