Verdict

Mick Halford's Rip Van Winkle mare, MISS SNOSSYBOOTS got of the mark over C&D last month, beating Itsalonglongroad 1L and the five-year-old can defy the 8lb penalty here under jockey Ronan Whelan. Hat-trick seeking C&D winner Georgian Bay could emerge as the biggest danger with Waterboy and Construct liable to produce a good account of themselves.
