Verdict

Gavin Cromwell has a trio of interesting runners and the most appealing could be CRESCENT MOON who was only raised 4 lb for her eye-catching second last month and could come out on top ahead of stablemate Bridie's Beau, who remains unexposed despite a 15 lb hike for his latest win. Killaney King should improve if settling in a first-time hood, while Krabat might be capable of outrunning his odds.

  1. CRESCENT MOON (FR)
  2. BRIDIE'S BEAU (IRE)
  3. KILLANEY KING (IRE)
