Verdict

An ordinary minor event, and the most likely winner is BLUEBERRY HILL, who ran better than ever on reappearance at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, and is sure to benefit from this longer trip. Later Darling has run to a slightly higher level form his 3 juvenile starts and is respected. Elena's Gift went off 100/30 for her debut at Leicester 6 months ago and is presumably thought capable of better.

  1. BLUEBERRY HILL (IRE)
  2. LATER DARLING
