Verdict

A competitive heat, as it should be, and it is hard to put a line through anything. Baywing is a very tough stayer on testing ground and he should give a good account, with Lake View Lad clearly one to respect after his Eider win. He beat CAPTAIN CHAOS there, but Dan Skelton's seven-year-old is 5lb better off and can turn the tables this time. Wakanda would be a popular winner and that is no forlorn hope, with a typically positive Danny Cook ride the likely scenario, while Crosspark is still going the right way and is saddled by a trainer who does well on her visits here.
  1. Captain Chaos
  2. Wakanda
  3. Baywing
