Several of these ran in the race won by Rath An Iur at Kelso in December. Glittering Love fared best in second but the third, MOROZOV COCKTAIL, was staying on in the closing stages over that 3m2f trip and Tim Easterby’s gelding is now 4lb lower than when runner-up in this marathon 12 months ago. Event Of Sivola has won over course and distance but looks held on the form book along with course specialist Prince Dundee, Camp Belan and Donna's Delight. Strong Economy appears to have lost his way while Conquredalofeurope weakened quickly stepping out of novice company at Bangor.
