      Verdict

      This looks a good opportunity for YORKSEA. He boasts the strongest form with a couple of placed efforts at Cheltenham and Gary Moore’s charge looks the one to beat in this moderate company. Cornicello is preferred to Afternoon Tea and the latter’s stablemate Many Words on a placed effort at Ffos Las while Navegaon Gate and Appreciate debut for new connections with the former rated higher on the Flat.
