Verdict

In a race where very few arrive with compelling claims a chance is taken on JUST CALL ME AL who offered a bit more back from wind surgery last time and has dipped to a mark he should be capable of winning from if retaining anything like his old ability. The consistent Castletown is sure to be thereabouts again. Rebecca Menzies handicap newcomer Boomslang would also come into it if the betting suggests he's fancied.

  1. JUST CALL ME AL (IRE)
  2. CASTLETOWN (FR)
  3. BOOMSLANG
