Verdict

Captain Mowbray continues to threaten without winning and CIVIL UNREST makes more appeal. He went close over today’s trip before scoring over 2m at Musselburgh recently and another bold bid is likely raised only 4lb. Oishin never looked catching the winner when placed at the same meeting at Musselburgh but Arantes was still in contention when falling a couple of hurdles from home at Ayr last time. Starplex has had just the three starts over timber and may do better now handicapping for the first time.
