Verdict

A good handicap which may be best narrowed down to the progressive 3yos. GUNSHIP was significantly better than the result at Royal Ascot and can show he's ahead of his mark back from 12 weeks off with cheekpieces added. There could be plenty more to come from Danger Bay who is second choice ahead of Dante's Lad. Dark Moon Rising has run a few promising races here this summer and may fare best of the older brigade.

  2. DANGER BAY (IRE)
  3. DANTE'S LAD (IRE)
