Verdict
The drop in class should see Faure Island finish closer. He's returned a losing favourite on his last couple of outings. NELSON'S PRIDE has yet to win but went close to doing so when runner-up at Beverley last week. Kevin Ryan's charge gets another chance competing off the same mark today. Polytrack winner First Experience has been below par on this surface of late but Cockney Belle represents last year's winning yard and may figure on her belated return to action.
