Verdict

Geological could set the fractions here in the initial stages and could have a few in trouble some way out. The gallant veteran will face stiff opposition in the final furlong of the race form STANHOPE, winner over C&D last month, beating Dance Alone ½L off a 7lb lower mark. The five-year-old may just have the advantage of a better draw over View The Bay and Amanaat.
  1. Stanhope
  2. View The Bay
  3. Geological
