In depth

Verdict

Spirit Of Coniston gets the confident vote here with Abientot and Canadian Danehill rated as the main dangers. The selection won well in this grade last time when beating Charlie Delta here. He gets on with today's pilot and he has a good draw today and he should take plenty of beating. Abientot is eased in grade and he looks well treated on his best form. He runs here for the first time but he has a fair draw and he should be thereabouts at the finish. Canadian Danehill is a course and distance winner and he had no luck in running last time out. The talented Jerry O'Dwyer is in the plate today and he is another with a good draw so he should be capable of claiming a place at the very least. City For Conquest is from a yard in good form and he is worth noting in the market, but Spirit Of Coniston has plenty in his favour and gets the vote.
