A disappointing finale with likely favourite Circulation looking very one-paced when third at Carlisle last time. There probably isn’t a lot to chose between Savannah Moon and FOUR WISHES on the form book and neither are proven on ground with some give. But Tim Easterby’s gelding has won a race and generally performed with credit this year so gets the nod. Entangling may still have some scope and looks the pick of the remainder.
