Verdict

THIRD WIND ran a cracker when easily best of the British contingent in the Final of this series at Cheltenham in March and might be up to conceding weight all round on his return as he's very much unexposed at 3m. This is harder than the race Dell'Arca won at Aintree recently but he has an obvious handicapping chance off the same mark. Fugitives Drift and Dolphin Square are others to consider.

  1. THIRD WIND
  2. DELL' ARCA (IRE)
  3. FUGITIVES DRIFT (IRE)
