Verdict
Shelley Birkett rides The Resdev Way today having partnered stablemate ROYAL RESERVE when runner-up at Beverley. Carly Scott takes over the reins on the latter and her 5lb claim could see David O’Meara’s charge go one better. Auspicion has won two of his last three starts over track and trip and can go close again under Serena Brotherton while Thello won here earlier and Archipeligo is another with claims.
