    Verdict

    Junoesque was surprisingly overhauled on her most recent start having travelled well but she is a regular winner around here and a top rider has been booked on this occasion. That could mean that there could be value lurking elsewhere and SMOKEY MALONE fits the bill. Julia Fielden’s gelding enjoys a substantial pull at the weights with his rival and recently scored on the Turf at Lingfield. Cherry Cola will be suited if this affair ends up developing into a test of stamina but all of Be Fair's four victories have been on the all-weather.
