Verdict

DANDY DEVIL came out on top against the odds-on favourite (won on his next start) at Newcastle 20 days ago and he can maintain his unbeaten record with this longer trip likely to suit. Federal Envoy also made a successful debut at Southwell and looks the main danger, with newcomer Own Accord completing the shortlist.

  1. DANDY DEVIL (IRE)
  2. FEDERAL ENVOY (IRE)
  3. OWN ACCORD
