Verdict

Ransom O'War will be far more at home on this straight track, rather than the bends at Warwick and he should run well, while Dove Tree is also open to improvement, but soft ground would be an unknown for her. Red Passion is out of a Group 2 winning mare, who won at this course on soft ground, so the conditions shouldn't bother her. Abundant, from the same family as the high-class pair Killer Instinct and Reprocolor, is by Zafonic, whose stock normally need a fast surface to show their best, while Lucky Leo is from the same family as Ayr Gold Cup winner Funfair Wayne. However, Pinkerton sets a fair standard and with his proven ability to handle soft ground, he is taken to prove too streetwise for the opposition.
