Verdict

Even in races here over a distance of note, the draw can be a significant factor. Ayr second Testa Rossa has not been lucky in that respect and Nonchalant, stepping up in trip, will also need to track across quickly from a wide start. San Cassiano will be going forward from stall six but has never convinced over this sort of distance. Stamina could also be a problem for Thankyou Very Much but Mcvicar won well at Thirsk, though steps up a grade for this. Archipeligo was placed over hurdles last week while Jammy Moment has a squeak but BAYAN KASIRGA has Sammy-Jo Bell's claim to help him get back on track and can record a third victory at the track.
