Verdict
Ten of the 14 entries are course and distance winners and Sunset Nova gained his fifth victory here last month before just failing to concede 22lb to Miss Cunning, who runs earlier. Punk Poet gained his third track success with a battling victory last month though TYRCONNELL, who was fourth, failed to obtain a clear run at a crucial stage and is taken to reverse the form and land this. Elzaam Blue made a winning debut in a maiden three weeks ago and an opening mark of 75 could be lenient while Adapt To Dan's two recent victories have been over this trip and he was staying on over 7f last time.
