Verdict

The vote goes to top-weight PRESENT FAIR, who hasn't always been the easiest to catch right but arrives here in top form, on the back of a win at Bangor and an equally good effort in defeat when going close at Uttoxeter. The 8-y-o remains feasibly treated and gets the nod ahead of Wee Alki and Billable Grant. The former is second choice on the back of close-calls at Kelso the last twice. Tiny Angel, one of two Irish raiders from the Noel Kelly yard, is also worth a second look.
