Verdict

Not too many appeal in this low key affair and it will be surprising if Echo Of Lightning isn't on the premises after his solid performance to win over 7f here last month. He's not the easiest to keep straight but he's got every chance of following up in this company. However, it might also pay to have a saver on MUTADEL making a fist of things, as he's currently on an attractive mark and the fitting of a visor seemed to rekindle his interest last time out. He could be good value this time. Retirement Beckons is another who is holding his form and can also go close. Geography Teacher and Chinese Spirit complete the shortlist.
  1. Muatadel
  2. Echo Of Lightning
  3. Retirement Beckons
