Verdict

Gordon Elliot holds strong claims here with both TOP OF THE TOWN and Presenting Julio holding strong claims. Whilst the latter was progressive last year, this is his first start for seven months and he might need the run. The first named also returns from a long break but this is his first run for the yard and he’s on a good mark. Lasoscar and Full Cry head the list of dangers.
  1. Top Of The Town
  2. Presenting Julio
  3. Lasoscar
