Verdict

A couple of interesting runners here are Voir Dire and Honour High and they should be watched closely in the betting, hoever a safer option here could be Gaelic Roulette. Jonathon Jay's charge returned to the track earlier this month and ran a blinder to finish runner up to Colwyn Bay, with today's rival Cragganmore Creek well back in third. That was her first run of the season and so with improvement expected she looks the one to be on. Voir Dire hasn't raced since 2005 but was a winning hurdler and as he is only five years of age he could still have plenty of ability. Meanwhile Honour High is returning to the flat following a two year absence. He hails from a very shrewd yard so it would be no surprise to see this one well supported. Of the others Glory Be can be given an each-way squeak, however the more likely winner is Gaelic Roulette.
