Verdict
Sisters In The Sky edges this at the weights and drops down in class but GORDONSTOUN arrives in better form. The latter made all to land a seller over course and distance recently and has previous winning form in soft going. Barneys Gift has a shout at the weights and acts on soft ground but the rest have a bit to find on these terms with Fire Eyes preferred to Jungle Run.
