Verdict

High Nellie would be a threat to all if rebounding from a poor run last time when she was noted to be blowing hard in a post-race examination. However, she is still hard to win with and the progressive RAVENHILL stands in her way. Gordon Elliott's embryonic chaser has won his last two starts showing a good technique and plenty of spirit. His latest victory looked worthy of a higher mark than that allotted by the assessor and he is taken to come out on top at the expense of Glocca Mora who landed his maiden over this trip and has the scope to improve further
  1. Ravenhill
