This looks a wide-open affair with any number of chances and AL BARG is only a hopeful choice for the Hannon team. The Acclamation gelding tackles a mile for the first but his running style suggests it will be well within his compass and he is already proven on quick ground. There is a concern about an absence of over 300 days but he is worth a shot off an acceptable handicap mark. New Graduate is very hard to get a handle on after just three starts in two seasons but needs to be taken seriously for a yard going well this term while Donncha would go close if able to rediscover his best for a new yard. The likes of Crownthrope, Swiss Storm and Garden Oasis are more exposed but have all shown enough to take a hand.
