Verdict

SKYJACK HIJACK continued his race-by-race progression when finding only a Jimmy Moffat-trainer improver too strong at this track 5 weeks ago so with this extra distance holding no fears, Jennie Candlish's 6-y-o can come out on top. Second choice is Blended Stealth, who is a long-standing maiden but got as close as he ever has at Perth last month. Handicap-debutante Baby Evie and Lady Harriett can fight out third.

  1. SKYJACK HIJACK (IRE)
  2. BLENDED STEALTH
