In depth
Verdict
Cnoc Moy gets the vote ahead of Rubilini and Brave Jack. Cnoc Moy ran the improving Dan Tucker close at Kempton last time and is respected on the back of that effort. Mark Of Love ran as though there is better to come in handicaps last time and improvement is not ruled out. Brave Jack finished ahead of him there, though, and, having pulled hard that day, might fare better at today's trip. Mark Of Love's stable companion Rubilini's fourth to Convivial Spirit over seven furlongs here last time reads pretty well in the context of this race and he too can't be ruled out. These form our protagonists with the selection being Cnoc Moy.
