Verdict

A wide open bumper rounds off the card and as usual the market will prove all important but the principals look to be Go For Bust, Itsa Legend,and Celtic Son and the vote goes to Go For Bust. The selection hails from a yard that does well in this sphere and this gelding by Saberhill is sure to know what is required with the booking of Barry Geraghty catching the eye. Itsa Ledgend rates the main danger he won well on his debut when defeating Lord Gale he is sure to have learnt from the experience but he will find it hard under his penalty. Celtic Son is another worthy of respect he was a fair sixth in a grade two bumper behind Secret Ploy last time and is worth noting in the market. Of the remainder Spirit Of New York is another well bred sort worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Go For Bust.
