Verdict

While he could do with brushing up on his jumping technique, CASTLE RUSHEN is nevertheless appealing having put in a good shift back in this sphere at Newcastle last time. He goes off the same mark here and both this step up in trip and the addition of more severe headgear (sports a first-time visor) are potentially positive factors. Stablemate Miss Milano is 3-3 this season and needs considering but Salvino, who looks pretty solid overall, is feared most.

  1. CASTLE RUSHEN (IRE)
  2. SALVINO (IRE)
  3. MISS MILANO (IRE)
