Verdict

Those that have run don't set the bar high so newcomers General Counsel and HELL ON EARTH seem the ones to focus on. Willie and Patrick Mullins have been out of luck with well-backed bumper favourites both days of this meeting so far and might have to accept another minor role now. The selection will probably want further in time, but the stiff run to the finish line should suit Lisa O'Neill's mount and they get a marginal nod, with the betting sure to be informative. Ash Hill is best on form, with plenty scope for doing better things.
