Verdict

The Joseph Murphy-trained FIT FOR FUNCTION has been running well in defeat in big-fields of late and can win the fourth race of his career on turf in this 7f contest. Not beaten far in two of his last three starts the Captain Gerard gelding may have enough to hold of potential challengers in the shape of Waterlemon Bay for Willie McCreery and Althib in first-time blinkers.
