In depth
Verdict
A tricky finale can go to SILK RUN, who won off this mark at Chepstow last year. She stays this longer trip and had further surgery in May to help with her breathing. Jasmin Des Bordes has also had wind surgery since last seen but Sebastian Beach is better over fences and Marble Moon was also in action over the larger obstacles when last seen. Easyrun De Vassy remains winless but Get An Oscar finally got his head in front at Market Rasen last August. Mr Mafia is the only previous course winner in the line-up but still looks too high in the weights.
