Verdict

A typically competitive renewal. AUBIS WALK came clear in good style at Sedgefield last time and might be the way to go. There should also be more to come from fellow Northern raider Ruby Island now moving into handicap company so she's second on the list. Moviddy, whose yard knows what it takes to win this race, Great Snow and Royale Dance are a few of many others who could go well.

  1. AUBIS WALK (FR)
