Verdict

URTHEONEIWANT was beaten less than a length by the much-improved The Clock Leary here earlier in the month. Gordon Elliott’s charge was raised 3lb for that but still gets weight from his three rivals. Arctic Gold has only had two runs over fences so is open to the most improvement but hasn’t raced since May. Carrigdhoun finished ahead of Ballyben at Kelso in April but neither has run since.
