Verdict

DERRY BOY was second off this mark at Lingfield last week having won earlier over track and trip. He looks the one to beat, though Tiger Zone has scope for improvement in first-time cheekpieces and any market support for Artillery on his handicap debut would be significant, though he’s shown little so far. Kashmirella is also worth considering, though she’s not really bred for the trip. Mark Usher’s pair, Born To Please and Bayston Hill, may prove the pick of the remainder.
