Verdict
CATCHTHEMOONLIGHT is turned out quickly having won at Hexham last week. She returned a clear winner without being unduly tested and can defy an 8lb hike in the weights. Goal also has recent form with a couple of placed efforts over track and trip last month and can figure while Amantius wasn’t beaten that far when only sixth at Exeter back over hurdles at the start of the month. Authorative has to race off a much higher mark here having placed at Fairyhouse and Anton Dolin has a bit to find with Goal on latest running.
