Verdict

This was divided last year and Jim Goldie's GONINODAETHAT won division one, the first of three victories on the track last summer on ground with some give. He's been drawn low for all three successes and is very well berthed again so is taken to concede weight all round. Rock Canyon and Fathom Five followed him home a year ago and neither are any better off at the weights. The latter finished runner-up to Amis Reunis at Hamilton on Friday and is by no means certain to reverse the form despite the better terms. Blue Sonic is still a maiden after 10 starts and her best form has been on fast ground while Bussa has been running poorly on the all-weather but would have an outstanding chance on the form shown the last time he ran on Turf in 2013. Moonbi Creek won once in 29 starts in Ireland and looks on a high enough mark as he makes his debut for Richard Ford.
