Verdict
Fairmac attempted to make all in a match at Haydock but came up short while both Glentaneous and Prince Of Harts drop back down a grade and may finish closer. KOLISI failed to threaten the winner when second in a three-runner affair at Ayr in August and has had a short break since. Both opponents on that occasion have subsequently won and the Haggas charge gets another chance on that form. Legendary Day’s earlier double came over a mile while fast ground was against Silver Gunn last time and he may finish closer.
