Verdict

MINERS GAMBLE hasn't had much luck of late, again not seen to best effect when denied a clear run at Chelmsford last week and the feeling is that he'll cash in on this mark sooner rather than later. Double Time and Mercurius Power are a couple of potential threats.

  1. MINERS GAMBLE (IRE)
  2. DOUBLE TIME
  3. MERCURIUS POWER (IRE)
