Verdict

Stopwatches at the ready this marathon contest won't be for the faint-hearted with a run time of fast-approaching 10 minutes. Most of those declared are Hexham regulars with Lowanbehold (2017) and Total Assets (2018) both previous winners of this race. Meanwhile the top-weight Misfits was nailed close home by Weststreet (FINAGHY AYR third) in the other four-miler at this track in March, and the front-running Classical Milano is also a standing-dish here (over 3m). Although the Lucinda Russell-trained runner has kept rock-solid form of late a welter-burden (11st 12lb) is a concern, so shekels are thrust in the direction of the Ian Duncan-trained veteran.
