Verdict

LEYLAK holds the clear edge on form and is taken to defy a long absence and open his account at the chief expense of Blenkinsop, who comes here on the back of a good effort. Zucayan wasn't given a hard time of it when fifth at Newton Abbot and appeals as the pick of the remainder.

  1. LEYLAK (IRE)
  2. BLENKINSOP
  3. ZUCAYAN (FR)
