Verdict

To all intents and purposes, this is surely a match between the penalised pair DIEG MAN and Free Range. The selection has been expensively acquired by JP McManus (€200,000) since winning on very soft ground at Auteuil in June. He'll not encounter ground anywhere near as testing on his UK debut this afternoon, but his form has a much stronger feel than that of the Dan Skelton trained runner, and he rates as banker material despite the predicted short odds.
