Verdict

A good-quality handicap with PENDLETON just about the most persuasive option having finished second in a C&D handicap from the same mark in June. Intrinsic Bond is in the form of his life so it's hard to know whether the assessor has caught up with him, with 3-y-o Parisiac completing the shortlist.

  1. PENDLETON
  2. INTRINSIC BOND
  3. PARISIAC (IRE)
