Verdict

EL ELEFANTE was still in front when taking a final-flight fall at Newbury and provided that tumble hasn't left a mark, is fancied to maintain her unbeaten record at Perth. Loughglynn has to be seriously respected as Willie Mullins attempts to strengthen his grip on the British Trainers' Championship, whilst Great Pepper clearly wasn't 100% at Haydock and is the pick for third on his prior efforts.

  1. EL ELEFANTE (IRE)
  2. LOUGHGLYNN (IRE)
  3. GREAT PEPPER (FR)
