Verdict

The return to this trip promises to suit ABDUCTION, who was denied a clear run at a crucial stage when a close-up third at Ayr recently. Jim Goldie's charge was beaten twice by Manigordo over C&D last season but he is clearly in great form and is taken to emerge on top this time. That said, Manigordo is greatly respected given his record here and is also arriving on the back of a near-miss at Ayr. No Nay Nicki should be sharper following her reappearance spin at York and she also has claims.

  1. ABDUCTION (FR)
  2. MANIGORDO (USA)
  3. NO NAY NICKI (IRE)
