Verdict

Despite clear signs of greenness DALSTON LAD was still able to run out a ready winner of a 7-runner Ayr bumper 2 months ago and, entitled to have derived plenty from that, Dan Skelton's charge is fancied to follow-up. Fellow debutant winner Old Blue Eyes and newcomer Is This For Real head up the dangers in the finale.

  1. DALSTON LAD (IRE)
  2. OLD BLUE EYES
