Verdict

It could be worth siding with the 3-y-o COSTA ADEJE, who reproduced something akin to his peak 2021 form when fourth at Nottingham and, down another 2 lb and back up in trip here, a bold show could be on the way. Cliffs of Freedom was well backed and didn't shape at all badly back from a lengthy absence in March, and he is second choice ahead of Mountain Ash and Diamond Cottage.

  1. COSTA ADEJE (IRE)

  3. MOUNTAIN ASH (IRE)
