Verdict

Given their fine respective runs of form in recent months it's difficult to split the C&D specialists Trevithick and Rey Loopy, whilst the Newcastle debutante Philamundo also merits consideration now stepping back up in trip with a more experienced rider in the saddle. However, there is an unexposed young pretender on the block and that is the fine-looking Mastercraftsman gelding MASTER DIVER. He demonstrated a stack of ability on his second start here (6f) in January, yet was far from the finished article. Progressing to break the maiden on Polytrack at Dundalk a mere eight-days later, an opening mark of 81 should prove to be well within his comfort zone.
  1. Master Diver
  2. Rey Loopy
  3. Philamundo
