Verdict

Ascendant has completed a hat-trick of minor-race victories and is still on the same mark though this looks slightly tougher. It's almost two years since Cloonacool won a novices' handicap here and he hasn't scored since though he's now on a lower mark. Litterale Ci, twice a winner on the Flat in France, has been a beaten favourite the last twice and needs to step-up a gear while Inn The Bull, a dual winner in the summer, blundered away his chances at Warwick last time. NEFYN BAY is very moderate but has managed to win five times. His stable is in cracking form and he looks to have a reasonable chance of gaining victory number six.
