Verdict
This finale will not take much winning and can go the way of newcomer Bouncy Castle with Leac An Scail and Tadeuz Mandziej both worth noting. The selection comes from a top yard that does well in these races and is sure to attract plenty of support. Tom George trains Leac An Scail and again his horses are in form at present so any market moves should be noted. Of the horses with experience Tadeuz Mandziej looked exposed at Newton Abbot and would appear to be no world beater but he is entitled to improve. I'll Ask O'Jay is another that can improve and comes from a yard going well at present but for the winner we return to Bouncy Castle.
