Verdict

The whole complexion of this card could change if the rain is as heavy as expected, and it may result in a softening of the ground. Some caution is advised at this stage. Some Day Soon looks the one to beat on form and should be on the premises again, but a chance is taken that DASHEL DRASHER could improve past him. He ran an eyecatching race at Chepstow last time and he won't mind how much rain falls. Southfield Stone and Druide Premier are both likely to do better and have to be considered too.
  1. Dashel Drasher
