Verdict

A strong renewal featuring the last two winners of the race but MINELLA INDO is a young chaser going places and can register a first Grade 1 win over fences. He's already proven his well-being with comfortable victories both starts this term and the likelihood is there is more to come on the back of just 5 chase starts. Last year's winner Delta Work, Presenting Percy and Kemboy head the dangers.

  1. MINELLA INDO (IRE)
  2. DELTA WORK (FR)
  3. PRESENTING PERCY
