Verdict

DARK VIPER's maiden status is a slight cause for concern, yet he's knocked firmly on the door on several occasions this term so, with his rider taking off a handy 7 lb, he's given the nod to deservedly open his account. Merisi Diamond arrives in fine form and is feared along with Eddie G. 3-y-o Mythical Rock is another worth bearing in mind along with Lust who has tumbled down the weights this year.

  1. DARK VIPER
  2. MERISI DIAMOND (IRE)
  3. EDDIE G (IRE)
