Verdict

A tricky contest despite the small field. So You Thought is very much respected on handicap bow having scored nicely last time at Navan while Gino Severini has run well in each of three starts and continues to progress as such. Clongowes finally ended a run of second-itus last time but will require some more surely off a 7lb rise in this. GOLD SPINNER missed an engagement at Ascot last week but he's looked very smart in winning his previous two starts and should have more to come still. Despite conceding weight in all directions, he can come out on top.
  1. Gold Spinner
  2. So You Thought
  3. Gino Severini
