Verdict

TOMMY'S OSCAR found the lack of a recent outing telling late on at Musselburgh last month so, with that run sure to have blown away the cobwebs, Ann Hamilton's very smart chaser earns the vote to notch his fourth win over the larger obstacles at the expense of Nube Negra, who found Grade 1 company all too much last time and he should be much more at home back in a handicap. Homme Public and Malystic can fight out third.
