In depth

Verdict

Yankee Holiday is preferred to Ormello and Hush Tiger. The selection ran a blinder over course and distance last time when finishing 8 lengths in front of Ormello (Stormy Lord was further behind) and is taken to go one better from just a 5lb higher mark with the faster ground no problem. Ormello should finish closer at the revised weights and is entitled to have come on for the run as it was his first outing since January. He has run well here in the past and looks certain to be in the mix. Hush Tiger has done most of his recent racing with cut in the ground but handles a faster surface and is unexposed over fences. He had a nice sighter over the larger obstacles when second to the smart Marodima last time which should have put him spot on for this contest but Yankee Holiday is preferred.
