Verdict

Ireland's Eye could manage fourth in this last year while Zegos Surprise has been in the mix in classified sprints lately. Rainbow Rain won on fast going here last summer and today’s ground may also be a problem for Hard Solution. But it was soft underfoot when IMPRESSOR scored off a higher mark at Ayr last season and with a recent run on the all-weather under his belt, he gets the nod.
