Verdict
Imjin River won this in 2014 and has scored here subsequently off a similar mark. But CHARLIE LAD finished ahead of Incomparable and the latter's stablemate Sir Geoffrey when placed over track and trip last month and Daniel Loghnane's charge may come out best today. Wattaboutsteve was third in a low grade classified event here last time and Azerelle has a shout on her earlier placed effort on the Fibresand and has the beating of Midnight Destiny.
