Verdict

The three-year-olds Isle of Wolves and Shifting Gold will be prominent in the betting but probably have a bit to find off their current marks. It would be no surprise to see Duke Of North spring back to form in a race like this and Grange Walk and Maroc are others to consider but THE LORDS WALK has won here over a mile and been second twice over course and distance so there is no reason why he shouldn’t go close again today as he seems to get on well with Thore Hammer Hansen.
