Verdict

Gary Moore has won this for the last two years and a fully-primed Aiguille Rouge would have strong claims, though was tailed off when pulled up at Sandown earlier this month. The Game Is A Foot isn’t getting any younger and could find this company too hot but there are possibilities about Hier Encore, a winner on this card 12 months ago, and also Falcon Sun. After hitting the crossbar twice last season, DOSTAL PHIL got off the mark in an Exeter maiden in March. He is unexposed on testing surfaces and can defy an absence to double his tally.
