Verdict

ALMOST GEMINI can defy top weight to claim this competitive looking staying handicap. The selection ran well when placed in a lady riders event last time out and has won at this track in the past. Tectonic has been in decent form of late and can go one better than when finishing third at Ayr last time out off the same mark here while Ingleby Hollow, a possible frontrunner and a winner here in 2015 can claim third.
  1. Almost Gemini
  2. Tectonic
  3. Ingleby Hollow
