Verdict

An open-looking handicap in which it could pay to side with DEMACHINE. Kerry Lee's low-mileage 8-y-o gained his third victory over fences when last seen at Uttoxeter 6 months ago and this revised mark doesn't look beyond him. Kapcorse was clearly trained to the minute to land this corresponding event for a second time last season so he heads up the dangers, with Killer Kane and Dublin Four another couple worth considering.

  1. DEMACHINE (IRE)
  2. KAPCORSE (FR)
  3. KILLER KANE (IRE)
