Verdict

ONLY SPOOFING signalled he's ready to strike again soon when runner-up at Bellewstown last month, so he's selected to land this race for a second year running. Resilience went pretty close over C&D on his penultimate start and is better judged on that form having been left poorly placed when well held at York last time. Ready Freddie Go arrives at the top of his game and completes the shortlist.

  1. ONLY SPOOFING (IRE)
