Verdict

The winner and runner-up from last year's renewal of this contest re-oppose here and it's A MOMENTOFMADNESS who is taken to reverse the form with El Astronaute. Charlie Hills' gelding has been in good form this campaign and a return to a fast five furlongs may see him get his head back in front. El Astronaute has rock solid claims again and he will benefit from his talented apprentice taking 5lb off his back. Pettochside should get a nice toe into the race and makes most appeal from the remainder, particularly if the ground gets soft.
  1. A Momentofmadness
  2. El Astronaute
  3. Pettochside
