Verdict

SPIRIT LEAD ME impressed when returning to winning ways at Kempton just 3 days ago and looks well placed to follow up under a penalty back over this longer trip. Havana Touch won at Kempton off a break in May and is respected following another absence, while course winner Emerald Army could be in the mix if seeing out this longer trip.

  1. SPIRIT LEAD ME (IRE)
  2. HAVANA TOUCH
  3. EMERALD ARMY (IRE)
