Verdict

It's impossible to see past MUCK'N'BRASS in this opener as Edward Lynam's colt made a very satisfactory debut behind Beat The Ballot in a similar event here a month ago and none of his rivals have shown anything like that kind of form. The stable also run Atticus Finch and Beloved Leader and the latter, who was behind the selection in that event, finished alongside Buachaill Tapa, Gilt Edge and July Revolution when they were in a bunch behind Captain Joy two weeks ago.
