Verdict

If RAISING SAND is ready to go on his reappearance, he's an obvious threat to all given his course form around here and given his draw (16), his jockey will be able to decide which side he wants to race if they split into two or three groups. Spanish City doesn't look like the easiest to train but there's nothing wrong with a 5lb rise for his latest effort and he may come on for that run. There's plenty of other live contenders in here but Ripp Orf is of interest for the David Elsworth yard and he may improve for a sounder surface here.
  1. Raising Sand
  2. Spanish City
  3. Ripp Orf
