Verdict

MEDIEVAL GOLD was a promising second on his Market Rasen hurdle debut in February and is taken to go one better now. Al Medix is an interesting newcomer from the Stuart Crawford yard and a market move for him would make him a possible big threat. Ravenscraig Castle is on a long losing run on the Flat but is talented enough to make his presence felt in a race like this if taking to hurdling.

  1. MEDIEVAL GOLD
  2. AL MEDIX (FR)
  3. RAVENSCRAIG CASTLE
