In depth
Verdict
The Last Mohican, Jacks Craic, The Hairy Lemon and Alasil are four against the field in a wide open affair and the tentative vote goes to Jacks Craic. The selection was a fair third in a better race behind Forager last time out and in what looks an easier race he is taken to score with conditions to suit to score. The Last Mohican rates the main danger on his latest second behind One Nation but his best form is over a longer trip and for that reason he is opposed.The Hairy Lemon is also worthy of respect on his latest second behind Shady Anne but he just gave the impression he was in the handicappers grip and for that reason he is over looked here. Alasil was well beaten behind Come Bye last time out but he will appreciate this shorter distance and better ground. Of the remainder Kadam is from a yard in top form and looks to be on a handy mark so he is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Jacks Craic.
