Verdict

LIFFEYDALE DREAMER is on an appealing mark returned to the Flat and she was right on her game when second over hurdles at Musselburgh 17 days ago, so this likeable mare is a confident choice to land this staying event. Beggarman is an obvious danger if he can replicate his AW form back on turf, and Niblawi is no forlorn hope having scored over hurdles last time out.

  1. LIFFEYDALE DREAMER (IRE)
  2. BEGGARMAN
  3. NIBLAWI (IRE)
