Verdict

BATTLE OF TORO was a wide-margin winner on this card 12 months ago and with his Wetherby effort back in November easy to put a line through (lost his action), Jimmy Moffatt's 7-y-o gets the verdict to double his tally in this sphere. Elham Valley has hit the crossbar on his last couple of starts and he may have to settle for silver once again, with the selection's stablemate Yukon rounding off the shortlist.

  1. BATTLE OF TORO (IRE)
  2. ELHAM VALLEY (FR)
  3. YUKON (IRE)
