Verdict

None of these inspire confidence with both Calin's Lad and Back From Dubai dropping down in trip after placing over a mile. Youllovemewheniwin scored over track and trip last year but returns to action for a new yard while Porfin’s recent form has taken a dip. RED WALLS has only won over the minimum distance so far but he’s back on a winning mark and this looks easier than his recent assignments.
