Verdict

Last year's winner MONSIEUR GIBRALTAR and Midnight Cowboy come here with winning point-to-point form and preference is for the first-named. He was a ready winner of this a year ago and has had an ideal preparation for his defence. Midnight Cowboy was a winner over regulation fences at Stratford in August and isn't likely to go down without a fight. Marinero and Deadly Sting look the best-placed of the remainder.
  1. Monsieur Gibraltar
  2. Midnight Cowboy
  3. Deadly Sting
