Verdict

In a contest where there appears to be a lack of pace it may be left to Sharjah to make the early running. The gallant 10-year-old has been running well in defeat in a number of starts since October and may set the race up in the closing stages for a couple of quicker closers. YAMATO has been running well in a number of starts since landing a Wolverhampton 2m½f handicap in October off a 12lb lower mark and can compete for the win with Cross Step who will not be far off the pace when the stalls open. C&D winners Miss Louise and Alcander both have decent form here in the last 12 months and should not be taken lightly.
  1. Yamato
  2. Cross Step
  3. Sharjah
