Verdict

The 2016 winner Ennistown returns for another crack at this prize although he’s now with a different yard and off a 6lb higher mark and enters off the back of a poor run last time out. Wynford will be an interesting ride for Harry Skelton as he needs to be delivered just at the right time and the long run-in may give him time to think a little too much. Don McCain who won this last year is two-handed this time and both William Of Orange and Volcanic can be given chances although both have their stamina to prove. ALLBARNONE has form that is hard to fault here and he’s taken to just outbattle another strong stayer in Nautical Nitwit with Island Heights worth a glance off his lenient mark.
