Verdict

Cases can be made for most despite a small field but DUKE OF MORAVIA seems sure to relish this extra distance, so Henry Daly's unexposed 5-y-o is taken to get the job done. The main threat could be No No Tango, who ran his best race to date when third at Kempton last month, while Amrons Sage and Whatsupwithyou are another couple fancied to be in the mix.

  1. DUKE OF MORAVIA (IRE)
  2. NO NO TANGO
  3. AMRONS SAGE (IRE)
