Verdict

EZ TIGER belatedly got off the mark over C&D a couple of months ago and having been nudged up just 3 lb, he's fancied to follow up at the expense of Champagne Town, who was runner-up at this venue when last seen back in May and returns on the back of a second breathing operation. Naasik and handicap debutante Horizon Dove can do battle for third spot.
