Verdict

YAIR HILL won a similar contest over 6f here earlier this month. He's favoured at the weights in this and has won four times over today's distance in the past. Naoise was winning over longer trips here in October and should be in the mix but Bush Beauty has a bit to find on today's terms after going close in a handicap here a week ago. Ortac Rock drops back down in class but has not won since 2013.
