Verdict

THECRAFTYMASTER shaped as if a return to this trip was required when runner-up here recently and, from a handy mark, he takes marginal preference over Prince Abu, who also found one too good at Southwell last time. Kemerton is another one to consider.

  1. THE CRAFTYMASTER
  2. PRINCE ABU (IRE)
  3. KEMERTON (IRE)
