Verdict

Not the most exciting start to the card and while Dutch Uncle holds the aces at the weights he’s not the sort to trust implicitly and C&D winner WHINGING WILLIE is preferred despite the disparity at the weights. Gary Moore’s charge just appears a little more reliable and straightforward although he won’t want this running at a slow pace as he does stay further. The other three all face stiff tasks if the official ratings are to be believed with Don’t Cry About It given the nod for the minor placing over Contingency Fee.
  1. Whinging Willie
  2. Dutch Uncle
  3. Don't Cry About It
