    Verdict

    Red Rudy, Measured Response and Corlough Mountain look the principals in a typically tricky claimer, with Red Rudy getting the vote. A 30,000 Guineas son of Inchinor, Measured Response has shown only a little ability to date, finishing second in an apprentice handicap last year, and fourth in a claimer last time. He comes back in trip here, and in this weak affair cannot be discounted. Corlough Mountain concedes weight all round here but he was a handicap winner at Lingfield in December. However, his efforts since have been disappointing, and though he drops to this class for the first time, he is opposed. Three time winner Red Rudy is in contrast a winner at this level, and is experienced in this grade. He won two outings ago and has been running consistently. This trip is a venture into territory where he is yet to score, though he has been placed at this distance. In a poor affair, Red Rudy can win again.
