        Verdict

        Quite an open contest with the raiders from Ireland holding a fairly strong hand with three perfectly reasonable challengers; Duncan Of Scotland has to prove he can win off this mark while Rosenborg Rider could be one to note of what looks to be an attractive mark. It's SAHREEJ who is of most interest amongst that trio though with his last run and return to 6f giving him a chance of ending his long losing run. Benjamin Thomas comes from a yard that is at the top of their game at the moment but he might just need a bit more cut in the ground to be fully effective over 6f.
