Verdict
Wonderful has been racing over further but is the class act here. However, taking into account Charlie Elliott's 10lb claim, she will have to give 32lb to CRYSTAL WINGS who ran his best race so far on similar ground when runner-up to Consonance at Galway and looks ready to open his account. Angel Bright, Rominintheglomin and Lord Jim all need to bounce back from recent modest efforts while both Hes Our Music and Danequest are proving difficult to win with.
