Verdict
Lord Seamus, The Manse Brae and Even More are three against the field in another wide open contest and the vote goes to Lord Seamus. The selection was a good third behind Dunster Castle off this mark last time out. He runs off the same mark here and under similar conditions he will be hard to beat. The Manse Brae rates the main danger on his best form of a couple of seasons ago but he has not been seen for the best part of two years and he may just need the run so he is passed over on this occasion.Even More is another that could go well he was a fair second behind Totheroadyouvgone l;ast time but this easier track is not sure to suit. Harry's Dream is well weighted on his best form but he was let down by his jumping last time and he will need to improve in that department if he is to trouble the principals. Of the remainder Moving Earth is well weighted on his best form but he can refuse to race so he can not be backed with any confidence and for the winner we return to Lord Seamus.
