Verdict
Brelan D'as looks a light for former days and Pat's Pearl is also best watched. BOY’S ON TOUR can take advantage of a tumbling mark being 8lb lower than when successful over course and distance just over 12 months ago. O Connell Street is less exposed and was second over 3m here in July but has to concede 8lb less Jordan Gainford’s claim. Makka Pakka was second at Market Rasen on his chasing bow and is another with scope.
