In depth

Verdict

Keep an eye on the betting here for a move on Has Scored, but without that knowledge we will side with Nevada Red, Go Nomadic looks the other obvious contender. The McCain yard is in decent form at the moment and Nevada Red does now look on a decent mark. He was clear second best behind the easy winner Woodstock Lass at Musselburgh recently and a similar effort today should be enough. Go Nomadic came up against an improved performer last time out and should go well despite the advancing years. Has Scored hasn't been out for over a year but has some decent form in the past. He is from a very shrewd yard so the market has to watched closely. It's Definite and Silver Crusader are from top stables and also warrant respect, but Nevada Red could be on the way back to his best and he gets our vote.
