Verdict

Possibly a contested lead here in the early stages with You Will Do For Me and Marino Marvel disputing with Steelyeyed, Specific Gravity, Trump Card and Aegeus chasing in behind. The pace of the race could be a major advantage for C&D winner INEFFABLE who can pounce late under capable 5lb claimer. Beaten favourite last time out Nulife can grab a place doing his best work at the end under Pat Smullen.
  1. Ineffable
