Verdict

A cracking contest despite the smallish field, and that may play into the hands of former Hunt Cup winner ZHUI FENG, who is handicapped to win and may be able to dominate. Lord North and Seniority are entitled to respect, with the former a real dark horse making his handicap debut after a luckless run in Listed company when last seen. Bless Him enters the reckoning on his Yarmouth win, but isn't sure of the strong pace which would suit him ideally.
  1. Zhui Feng
  2. Lord North
  3. Seniority
