Verdict

Four of the septet are course and distance winners and hopefully MRS WARREN will be added to the list after this contest. The youngest member of the field, she's gone very close the last twice and maybe George Baker can eke out just a little more improvement to see her go one better. Darnathean must be a consideration but is really hard to catch right whilst Perfect Pastime has notched a success in each of the last four years and Jim Boyle's decision to use Daniel Cremin's claim here could well bear fruit as his charge seeks back-to-back successes after a course and distance success last month. He's the main danger. Eager To Bow is down to a more feasible mark whilst Shifting Star should put in his usual solid effort although Polytrack seems more his thing nowadays.
