Verdict

GOLAN CLOUD was no match for a very well-handicapped rival here last time but did see the rest off comfortably so could be the way to go with the Jennie Candlish team continuing in fine form. Cudgel is respected as a last-time-out C&D scorer, while Final Fling goes well in the mud and is down to a mark he ought to be very competitive from.
