Verdict

Another moderate contest made up of largely disappointing types so this may be a suitable opportunity for Manodee who is a tentative TEAMtalk pick. The Venetia Williams-trained gelding had some useful form in the context of this race in his native Ireland and is fairly treated on his British bow having landed a Fairyhouse handicap last year. Judaic Ways is not the easiest to train and is perhaps watched on his belated comeback so Coolteen Hero, who has slipped down to a most attractive handicap mark after a string of poor efforts, looks best of the remainder.
