Verdict

A competitive 3-y-o handicap with the narrow vote in favour of JUNGLE MAC. He took a while to knuckle down when runner-up behind a less exposed rival at Newmarket last week (the pair clear) but that was still his best effort yet and the plum draw/Franny Norton in the saddle sways things in his favour. Sandown-scorer Sunfall is a chief threat from her handy draw. Al Shabab Storm and Blue Prince complete the shortlist.

  1. JUNGLE MAC (IRE)
  2. SUNFALL
  3. AL SHABAB STORM
