Verdict

A typically competitive renewal of this race but there are a couple of runners who are "well-in" under 3lb penalties that are of interest. None more so than MOJITO who returned from a lengthy absence to win a decent race at Sandown last time out and should improve for that run. Indeed is another potential improver who arrives here bidding for a hat-trick while there was little to separate Afaak and Clon Coulis and both those runners could go well.
  1. Mojito
  2. Indeed
  3. Afaak
