Verdict
This can go to the improving three-year-old NOBLE ANTHEM (NAP), who is having only a fourth career start. Any rain would help easy Haydock winner Arch Moon but Carrigillihy hasn’t really kicked on from a win at Pontefract in the spring. Unplugged was returning from a very long absence when beating a subsequent winner at the same course, however, while Glasses Up loves it here and was second over 1m5f on the track last month.
