Verdict
Gordon Elliott muddies the waters with two of the four runners and EVERYBREATHYOUTAKE is just preferred of the pair on the basis that he has shown the capability of winning in small fields. Connections have shown patience with Old Town Garde and he appeared a useful prospect in his younger days, picking up a point-to-point at Wadebridge before delivering over hurdles at Fairyhouse. And The New was not disgraced in the Perth Silver Cup while Big Difference is 0-15 over fences and his regular headgear is absent on this occasion.
