Verdict

Pat Smullen continues his association with The Last Indian, who he has ridden to three victories all over shorter. His mount shouldn't be inconvenienced by stepping up in trip though he's 10lb higher than his latest victory. This has been a good race for three-year-olds and Tony Martin's acquisition from Germany DRAKENSBERG could be answer as he may be starting out on a lenient mark having looked impressive on his latest start in his native country. Harvey Specter is tackling this trip for the first time but has been staying on strongly so has to be respected but Commander Won got off the mark at the 15th time of asking at Dundalk and this looks tougher. El Tren is 13lb higher than his last winning mark and better handicapped on the all-weather.
