Verdict

A tricky finale and with that in mind it may pay to take a chance on the returning ARNICA. Representing a yard in good nick, he appeals as being on a workable mark on the pick of his form and it would come as no surprise to see him go well. Kiss My Face reacted well to the fitting of a visor when successful at Hereford recently and a repeat gives him sound claims again, The Blame Game and Rubytwo complete the shortlist.

  1. ARNICA
  2. KISS MY FACE
  3. THE BLAME GAME (IRE)
