Verdict

This is a good race in which it is hard to rule out any of the 10 contenders. CHICA BUENA has a lot more to do than when routing juvenile rivals at Aintree last time but she is in great form and will make a bold bid for the five-timer. Kelpies Myth appears to have her measure at the weights but is no certainty to reverse the form, while top weight Irish Roe cannot be ruled out after a solid effort last time at Doncaster. Get Out Of The Gate represents last year's winning yard and could have been laid out for this, and Val Mome and Normal Norman are others who are well worthy of consideration .
  1. Chica Buena
  2. Get Out The Gate
  3. Val Mome
