Verdict

Plenty to consider with the vote going to NEON MOON, who won this race off 2 lb higher on his return last season and this has likely been the target again given his connections. Destroytheevidence also won at this meeting on his reappearance 12 months ago and rates the main threat ahead of Snipe, who made an eye-catching return at Worcester.
