Verdict

Plenty of likable profiles here but today may finally be ALMANIA's day after an excellent third to a handicap snip at the Royal Meeting on his stable/seasonal bow last month. Dangers aplenty here however with recent Newmarket winner Country heading a strong William Haggas challenge. Lightly raced dual-winner Sam Cooke is another worthy of significant merit.
