Verdict

This can go to CONCRETE KING, who wasn't seen to best effect under an excessively patient ride when finishing a close third at Southwell just under a fortnight ago and Neil Mulholland's 9-y-o can belatedly open his account under Rules. Consistency is by no means Dindin's strong suit but he can give the selection most to do, with last-time-out winner Pedley Wood and Paseo rounding off the shortlist.

  1. CONCRETE KING (IRE)
  2. DINDIN (FR)
  3. PEDLEY WOOD (IRE)
