Verdict

There doesn’t appear to be a natural front-runner in this and there’s a danger that it may end up being a little bit of a sprint. Even in those circumstances it’s hard to ignore the claims of DAGUENEAU who looks the progressive member of the field despite this being his first attempt at the trip. The other trio all have question marks over them with Precision needing to show that he can regain his form now he’s with Mark Johnston and Blue Hussar (best fresh) may be the biggest danger as it’s far from certain that Tommy Docc retains his old ability although this run will tell us more.
