Verdict

Another contest that shouldn't take a great deal of winning see's the Gordon Elliott-trained COLD SHOULDER attempt to land a hat-trick of wins. The improving four-year-old can improve even further on home soil at the expense of the Gavin Cromwell-trained Moonball, distance winner Authorative and Naturally Blonde who can battle for the minor honours.
  1. Cold Shoulder
  2. Moonball
  3. Authorative
