Verdict

It didn't take long for Mick Appleby to work his magic on RASCAL RECKNELL who might be able to cope with a 2 lb nudge for Doncaster. Stratocracy, Beaming Light and Crown's Lady all arrive in good form and should also have a part to play in this competitive finale.

  1. RASCAL RECKNELL (FR)
  2. STRATOCRACY (IRE)
  3. BEAMING LIGHT
