Verdict

CUBAN GREY has twice won over C&D and, with both the drop in grade and return to this venue sure to suit, he looks worth siding with. Jordan Breeze has been out of form lately but is well treated on the pick of his efforts and is a big player if bouncing back, while Steel Magnolia and Harry’s Hill head the rest in an open sprint handicap.

  1. CUBAN GREY
  2. JORDAN BREEZE (IRE)
  3. STEEL MAGNOLIA (IRE)
