        Verdict

        Sure to be plenty of pace on in the finale, which should bring the best out of the well-drawn Highland Warrior, who just edges the call before Chairman Bobby and Elliot's Choice, who should both be hard to keep out of the frame. The same has to be said of course and distance winner Pirlie Hill, whose low draw is more of a worry than the 6lb extra she has to carry in this company. Malahide Express is another that has solid claims and deserves a change of fortune after a series of decent efforts in defeat this season. However, he has a little to prove with the selection from their encounter at Newcastle in April and may have to settle for a minor role again. Therefore, this may be best left to Highland Warrior, who should appreciate this stiff uphill finish in his bid to combat the drop in trip here.
