Verdict

Gordon Elliott has won this race twice since 2017 so a chance is taken on his newcomer THE MEDIATOR, with confidence increased should the betting speak in his favour. Derracrin and Ballyglass are best of those with previous racecourse experience, while Downtown Queen is another debutante to keep a close eye on in the market.
