Verdict

NOVELLO LAD proved better than ever when justifying strong support at Doncaster last time and can defy top weight to follow up. Profiteer has held his form well since winning over 7f here in May and rates as the biggest threat, with Highland Olly competing the shortlist on the back of a sound effort at Ayr.

  1. NOVELLO LAD
  2. PROFITEER (IRE)
  3. HIGHLAND OLLY
