Verdict

It's one apiece between THYME HILL and Paisley Park this season, but the latter isn't sure to be seen to best effect over this sharp 3m so it's Philip Hobbs's charge who missed Cheltenham and is taken to come out on top in the decider. Roksana is closely matched with that pair on Long Walk form and should give another good account. Vinndication is an each-way player in blinkers.
