Verdict

A very competitive stayers handicap in which it's possible to construct a reasoned argument for any number of horses. Some of the more obvious candidates include the winning machine Platform Nineteen, the heavy ground winner Laafy and the newly-visored Ffos Las scorer Darksideoftarnside. Meanwhile, Gary Moore's Quloob is strongly fancied to extract his revenge on his Salisbury nemesis Horatio Star, while Laura Pearson's 7lb claim is considered a boost to the chances of Battle Of Marathon. However, we nail our colours firmly to the mast of the improving stamina-laden three-year-old LANDA BEACH.
