    Verdict

    The blinkers certainly worked for Ragamuffin last time and if they have the same effect again, he will be the one to beat, although he could have been better drawn. Night Flight is well handicapped nowadays and is certainly capable of taking this, if putting his best foot forward. Bint Royal is improving fast and this filly proved herself over course and distance last time whe running away from a big field. She has more to do in this, but she could not be left out of calculations.
