Verdict

Having shaped well in a couple of minor events, SYCAMORE GAP wasn't able to improve straight away switched to a handicap at Wolverhampton last time, but he's well worth another chance on turf. He's bred to be suited by this longer trip and can get the better of handicap-debutante Rose Donnelly, with Midnight Lion also in the mix.

  1. SYCAMORE GAP
  2. ROSE DONNELLY
  3. MIDNIGHT LION
