Garnock has a reasonable winning ratio for this grade, but hasn’t won for two years. Boston Blue is a regular in sellers but may struggle to carry top weight so KUDU COUNTRY, who won a similar contest in May, may be the answer in a weak looking race. Like many of these, bumper winner Alyasan has shown nothing in five outings over hurdles but is at least relatively unexposed and can make the frame.
