Verdict

This competitive race may go to WISHMOOR, who has been knocking at the door since joining Johnny Levins and holds every chance back down in distance. Several other runners tie in with each other on recent form and Crazyheart may prove best of that bunch, given how they are all weighted today. Trumps Ace is open to further improvement and Kavanaghs Corner has a solid profile, while Western Sea and Bridge Native also enter calculations.
  1. Wishmoor
  2. Crazyheart
  3. Trumps Ace
