Verdict

A race to treat with caution, given that every runner could win it on their day, but most have something to prove. Grand Morning, Crest, Blue Flight and Lough Salt all arrive on the back of disappointing runs last time, but all of them has the ability to go close if they can bounce back to their best. Abbreviate represents a trainer who does well on his raids here, but his lengthy losing run hardly inspires confidence, so it could be worth chancing MY OLD GOLD. She has a good chasing pedigree, while both conditions and trip suit, and her trainer's string is in a bit better form than the others in the line-up.
  1. My Old Gold
  2. Blue Flight
  3. Abbreviate
