Verdict

Typically competitive stuff with several in with a shout. However, the vote goes to LEABALAND, who is yet to match the pick of last season's efforts this year, but is taken to strike with first-time blinkers applied having scored at this venue from a 4 lb higher mark 12 months ago. Cursory Exam is feared most after opening his account over C&D last week, ahead of Tooreen Angel and Adamaris.
