Verdict

KASHI's mark is creeping up all the time but his consistency is hard to knock, again finding only one too good in a big-field Naas handicap 25 days ago, and he gets the nod to belatedly shed the maiden tag. Little Token, returned to calmer waters, and Saga Aravis are others fancied to be in the shake-up.

  1. KASHI (FR)
  2. LITTLE TOKEN (IRE)
  3. SAGA ARAVIS (FR)
