Verdict

Wide open contest where a chance is taken with the Mick Halford-trained YAMATO who was running well in defeat over C&D at the turn of the year and has the assistance of Ronan Whelan back on board. The yard are 11 from 50 here in March over the last three years and the Big Bad Bob gelding can out run his odds. Course winner and beaten favourite last time out, Sleepy Head, Lusis Naturea and Phebes Dream can battle it out for the places.
