Verdict

BAHLWAN was well drawn when scoring over track and trip 11 days ago under Killian Leonard. He was put up 6lb for that but stall nine is not a bad starting position today and he should make a bold bid to follow up. Fellow Irish raider Mr Shelby and Roaring Rory are others for the short-list and Groundworker should be approaching peak fitness after a couple of outings. Boudica Bay should also be prominent but Someone Exciting may need an extra furlong.
