Verdict

JET LEGS leaves the impression he could really come into his own now tackling a long distance for the first time and gets the vote. Raceview Road is another young chaser who shapes as if an increased stamina test will suit and is second choice. 2022 winner Flower of Scotland is potentially well handicapped and completes the shortlist for a local stable with an excellent record in this race.
