Verdict
The four-year-old Asian Prince and Cash Injection both have decent claims in this opener having produced decent efforts of late. The former has the beating of Bach On Tow on the form book but Mount Vesuvius' latest second here came over a longer trip and in a seller. BERNISDALE gets a tentative vote as she's been running well on the Flat lately and is starting to look well treated over hurdles. Paddleyourowncanoe is in the veteran stage now but may be capable of making the frame at decent odds.
