Verdict

The application of a first-time tongue tie/less testing ground than previously were presumably the catalysts for ACT OF VIOLENCE's comfortable success at Ripon 11 days ago and a bold follow-up bid could be on the cards given Tim Easterby's charge remains easily one of the least exposed. Late Arrival, a winner over C&D latest, is feared with a good pace entitled to suit. Havana Rum and Hour By Hour are others to note.

  1. ACT OF VIOLENCE
  2. LATE ARRIVAL (IRE)
  3. HAVANA RUM (IRE)
