Verdict

A cracking contest in prospect and HEARTACHE may be the answer. Clive Cox trained last year's winner, Harry Angel, and while she may not necessarily go on to achieve what he has done, she looks well worth her place in this line-up, could improve a bit for the extra furlong, and her fillies' allowance is also a plus. Invincible Army looks a real threat in opposition, with Sands Of Mali and Unfortunately both feared and James Garfield another not ruled out.
  1. Heartache
  2. Invincible Army
  3. Unfortunately
