Verdict

Top-weight Hope Is High ended last season in top form and is much respected on her return to action, but she is on a stiff mark so the vote goes to ASTUTE BOY, who is open to improvement and can make a successful start for his new stable. Bombero can get involved over this longer trip, while Cape Banjo could improve for first-time cheekpieces and Incredible Dream should be fitter this time.
  1. Astute Boy
  2. Hope Is High
