Verdict

A relatively low-grade affair with NOBEL JOSHUA the one who makes most appeal. The selection showed marked improvement for the step up in trip/switch to handicaps when finishing third to an upwardly mobile rival in the shape of Moon King at Wetherby. There doesn't look to be anything as well treated in this contest and with the extra furlong likely to be in his favour, he could be the type to rack up a sequence in this sphere. Galeola represents a yard who do well with unexposed types in low-grade handicaps and she has her first handicap start off what is an eye-catchingly low mark. King Of Aran could sneak a place if able to replicate his comeback effort.
  1. Nobel Joshua
  2. Galeola
  3. King Of Aran
