Verdict
DAL HARRAILD comes out clear at the weights and looks the one to beat. William Haggas’ charge won a Listed contest over track and trip last year when Dylan Mouth was well beaten and romped home in a conditions race at Chelmsford back in March. The latter ran well in Listed company over 1m4f at Newmarket a fortnight ago while Scotland faced a tough task in the Ascot Gold Cup last time and today’s shorter trip will suit better. Time To Study could only manage fourth in a similar contest here last month but is still preferred to My Reward.
