Verdict

None of these can be safely ruled out but Paul Nicholls' exciting prospect KNOWSLEY ROAD is taken to maintain his unbeaten record in this sphere at the chief expense of the fellow hat-trick seeking Grey Dawning, who will also be very much at home under these conditions. Ginny's Destiny, Givega and Moon Hunter all merit a close look too in a fascinating Grade 2.
