Verdict

An interesting race. GIDLEIGH PARK created a good impression in a bumper last spring and is preferred to expensive point recruit Salt Rock. Range and Ben Pauling pair Samazul and Man of My Dreams achieved enough in bumpers to think they can also make their mark in a race like this.

  1. GIDLEIGH PARK
  2. SALT ROCK
  3. RANGE (IRE)
