Verdict

It would be the cold heart that denies Youngnedofthehill a win given his string of near misses this season, but his strike-rate is very poor and he's going to need things to fall perfectly under a patient ride. Instead, REINE FEE can avoid a hat-trick of seconds. She's run a couple of fine races recently and will handled conditions underfoot, ensuring any positive effect from the first-time blinkers puts her firmly in the mix. Spruced Up and Fauguernon make plenty appeal having raced in stronger company last time.
  1. Reine Fee
  2. Spruced Up
  3. Youngnedofthehill
