Verdict
Urbanist has shown some improvement between the flags lately, as has Shoal Bay. Dressedforsuccess is a standing dish here and won a handicap at this meeting last year while Write It Down won this contest 12 months ago. He was pulled up in the Foxhunters’ at Aintree when last seen under Rules but TIME LEADER finished an honourable fifth in that contest and went on to win eased down at Kelso. He’s never raced over a trip this far but is the one to beat if lasting home. Gaboriot will also have stamina to prove.
