Verdict

Several to consider in this competitive contest, with INVINCIBLE MELODY earning the vote. Though still a maiden following nine appearances, there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with his attitude and this step up in trip could be just what the doctor ordered. Chesneys Charm is greatly respected after getting the job done at York recently and he is second choice ahead of Perfidia. Handicap debutant Arkleside and the consistent Double Parked are others to consider.

  1. INVINCIBLE MELODY (IRE)
  2. CHESNEYS CHARM
  3. PERFIDIA (IRE)
