In depth
Verdict
Mcconnell saves his best for this venue with eight of his previous 10 victories coming over track and trip. He's not easily dismissed despite not being the force of old but the younger MOE'S PLACE is still preferred. He went close over shorter trips here earlier in the year and is worth a try at a mile. Bladewood Girl and Blackamoor Harry will need a big improvement on previous attempts on this surface so Marina Ballerina looks a bigger danger.
