Verdict
Riot is usually in the mix and won off today’s mark here back in May. GULMARG failed to get a clear run over a mile at Kempton last time though still finished in front Maid In Kentucky and was beaten only a neck when last seen over today’s trip. Get Stuck In won over a longer trip here in March and a visor is applied but Media Guest has proven hard to win with.
