Verdict

A tight contest given several of these have been thereabouts over longer trips here recently. Third-placed Yasood finished ahead of Pivotal Dream and Bassino over 1m2f and Pivotal Dream had earlier finished in front of Hold Firm. Dukes Meadow can race off the same mark as when third on his latest start but a speculative vote goes to the returning HYMN FOR THE DUDES. John Berry's charge was placed over track and trip on his handicap debut back in May and should have improved during the interim.
