Verdict

VASCO DU MEE should have a solid claim of landing this race for the second year running having enjoyed a spin in a point-to-point recently. He came home under this rider in a common canter last year, and is the one to beat again. Tinkers Hill Tommy could be chief danger, having ended last season as an improver in this sphere, while Al Co – if in the mood – and Repeat Business are others that merit consideration.
