Verdict

SCARAMANGA has plenty of scope over hurdles and is likely to be hard to suppress now he's got the benefit of a couple of spins under his belt. Melekhov is also going the right way and is probably better than he showed last time out. The mount of Richard Johnson has to be rated as a player in this company. Stream Lady and Sally Can't Wait are others to bear in mind for place money.
  1. Scaramanga
  2. Melekhov
  3. Stream Lady
