Verdict

The one who stands out is CATCH HIM DERRY, who made it 2 wins from 3 starts in handicaps in ready fashion at Ayr 6 months ago and looks sure to go on improving this season. Shallow River sets out for a yard making hay with recruits from the same source so has to feared, along with Canty Bay, who resumed his progress with a good second at Taunton in April.

  3. CANTY BAY (IRE)
