Verdict

SONNEOFPRESENTING has made a good impression over fences and despite getting beaten at Perth, the winner there is a bit of a specialist at the track and he ran well in defeat. He can make all in this small field. Kilfinchen Bay and Buachaill Alainn have both been around the block a few times and can chase him home.
