Verdict

RUSSIAN SERVICE has won here again since landing last year’s inaugural running off a similar mark. Another bold bid looks likely in a weak a handicap. King Cool and Outisaid have both failed to build on earlier placed efforts with the latter preferred over today’s trip while Frankincense recorded an earlier success at Exeter over 2m1f on faster going. Menapian has placed here in the past while Shutupshirley and Windance may do better now handicapping for the first time.
