Verdict

Not nearly so competitive as the numbers suggest, and THE GRADUAL SLOPE is taken to deservedly open his account on the back of his good recent Killarney fourth. Scenic Look posted an excellent sixth on the Flat for her new yard so is feared most now back in this sphere, with Latest Model appealing as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
