Verdict

A tricky race and a chance is taken with IMPERIAL CHOICE who put in a career best performance last time out at Tramore when she was finishing strongly in the closing stages with this step up in trip expected to suit. Love The Well has been showing improved and more consistent form since the fitting of blinkers and he is expected to run another solid race. Mr Moondance is another whose current form warrants closer inspection with the gelding putting up a useful performance over course and distance last time out.
