Verdict

Plenty to consider in this big field handicap but having been well backed, OAKLEY shaped up well when second on yard debut at Cork (12f) 7 weeks ago, sticking to his task having been sent on a long way out. Expected to be suited by this step back up in trip, he can make a bold bid if held on to a little longer this time. Jazzy Rock, Spinning Web and Lady Christa are others to consider, with Viceregent also worth keeping an eye on.
