Verdict

This is wide open so it is worth siding with PRINCE OF PERTH to take a sizeable step forward now he goes into handicaps with his stamina drawn out more and get off the mark. The Northernlights should also benefit from stepping up in trip and heads the list of dangers with Quian, Balcomie Breeze and Catboy all in the picture too.

  1. PRINCE OF PERTH (IRE)
  2. THE NORTHERNLIGHTS (IRE)
  3. QUIAN (GER)
