In depth
Verdict
A moderate affair here and the market may prove the best guide however we will take a chance on Millennium Way. The gelding from the Turner yard was a good second in a better race behind Celtic Duke last time out and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Little Farmer rates the main danger he is from a shrewd yard and he has been in fair form of late and with conditions in his favour he has definite place claims. Tricky Trevor would have a chance on his best form but he was very disappointing between the flags last season and for that reason he is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Graphic Designer has looked an improved performers between the flags and if he takes to regulation fences he could go well at a fair price. The rest need to improve on there latest efforts to trouble the judge.
