Verdict
A wide open contest gets proceedings underway and a chance is taken on Beat Time. He is from a yard in good form is proven on the ground and he should go well now he is dropped to selling grade for the first time. Miss Koen is fit from hurdling and she would have a chance on her Irish flat form but she will do well to win from her bad draw. Wood Dalling is another with a chance on his best form but he disappointed at the end of last season. However he is another taking a big step down in grade. Yorkshire Blue has only ever won on the Aw and he has never reproduced his best efforts on turf. Rymer's Rascal is a course and distance winner who also goes well on fast ground but he tends to need a couple of runs before he hits top form.
