Verdict

A chance is taken on BADNESS BACKFIRES, who didn't shape at all badly without being knocked about on debut for this yard at Hereford where he was returning from a break. He is an appealing alternative to likely favourite Dan Gun, a winner on debut for this yard at Stratford recently. Dan Skelton's charge is a much-respected main danger, while Rubytwo also enters calculations.

  1. BADNESS BACKFIRES (IRE)
  2. DAN GUN (IRE)
  3. RUBYTWO
