Verdict

Desert Ace has the ability to win this but has been inconsistent this season, and Economic Crisis has lost her way after a promising return to action back in May, so in a weak looking contest, LONGROOM could be the answer. He has run up a hat-trick this season and although he’s shot up in the weights as a result, the manner of his performance over course and distance last time suggested he could have another win in him. New Road Side is on a good mark but has been woefully out of form of late, as has the veteran Silvanus, while Kinloch Pride is the grip of the handicapper.
