Verdict

Not a convincing bunch, but RETIREMENT BECKONS did well to finish as close as he did held up in a steadily-run race at Hamilton last time and he could be the answer. Hostelry and Listen Again are long-standing maidens but look the main threats.

  1. RETIREMENT BECKONS
  2. HOSTELRY
  3. LISTEN AGAIN (IRE)
