Verdict

The J P McManus-owned CROSSED MY MIND can continue the winning thread of the owner this week and get off the mark over the larger obstacles at the third time of asking. The Beneficial gelding can get the better of the Gordon Elliott-trained Mill Quest who can transpire to be the biggest danger ahead of Great Khan, under Gold Cup winning jockey Paul Townend.
