Verdict

This is hard to call as Richenza and Oriental Lilly would both have a chance if taking part but were due to run here yesterday while Right Action could only manage third over track and trip on Thursday. That being the case, LUALIWA gets the nod on his earlier placed effort in soft going at York with Kevin Ryan’s charge racing off a lower mark today. Hajjam also ran well at York last month but Dragons Tail and Alemaratalyoum recorded their respective latest wins on fast going.
