        Verdict

        Jeepstar, Inchnadamph, and Highland Games are the three to consider here and Jeepstar is taken to supplement his Beverley success. Inchnadamph has yet to win over this trip but is in great form-yet to finish out of the first four in all his starts this season and twice a winner. He won in game style by a short head last time and will not go down without a fight. Highland Games showed improved form when chasing home Mumbling at Newbury last time and like many of Luca Cumani¿s runners, can be expected to continue to improve as the season goes on. Jeepstar though looks the one they have to beat and Jamie Spencer is an eye-catching jockey booking for Tim Easterby. He had been running consistently without reward before taking advantage of his Beverley opportunity and with that win under his belt he can prove a tough nut to crack here. Jeepstar can lead them home.
