Verdict

Course form is expected to be crucial in this contest, and the admirable HIGHLAND ACCLAIM can improve from his recent course outing (where he was slightly tapped for toe at a crucial stage) in an easier contest to continue his love affair with this track and land the raced named in his honour. Ashpan Sam bounced right back to form over C&D last time out but could struggle giving weight away to rivals who are of similar ability, while Clear Spring is expected to strip fitter for this while Helvetian has claims if bouncing back from a poor run.
