Verdict

A few in with chances but the vote goes to PERFECT FOCUS, who came in for strong support but was never really in the race from a poor position on first start for this yard at Wolverhampton 17 days ago. That outing should have blown away any cobwebs and, now down in grade, he's taken to open his account. Inclement Weather, Makambe and Last Date look the main dangers in that order.

  1. PERFECT FOCUS (IRE)
  2. INCLEMENT WEATHER
  3. MAKAMBE (IRE)
