Verdict

Mariners Moon was just touched off at Warwick a couple of weeks ago but has been raised 4lb since. In a dire affair, we’ll give another chance to PRESENTING BERKLEY, who stays further so should be suited by this stiff track. Shaiyzar is usually thereabouts without winning while Waltz Darling would have made short work of these in his prime and the booking of Brian Hughes suggests he is fancied to run well eased in grade.
