Verdict

ICARE GRANDCHAMP resumed from a lay-off with a very good Fontwell second earlier in the month and Gary Moore's lightly-raced sort rates the pick of the weights off an unchanged mark here. Course-winner Systemic is also weighted to have a say and next on the list ahead of Pollypockett, Cherry Cola and Proper Twelve.

  1. ICARE GRANDCHAMP (FR)
  2. SYSTEMIC
  3. POLLYPOCKETT (IRE)
