Verdict

MIRIMAR was expected to win over the course and distance last month but found heavy ground just against him having made most. Providing the going doesn't become too testing, he can make amends. Snookered is stepping up to this trip for the first time but hasn't been stopping and should be suited while the maiden Duke's Girl has been showing up for a long way over further and her rider will be keen to make her stamina count. Costa Percy has won twice over hurdles and scored on the level at Musselburgh last time, though all victories have been on quicker ground than this.
