Verdict

An uncompetitive race which can go the way of GAELIC RAMBLER, who has been lightly raced under Rules to date and caught the eye under considerate handling at Southwell last month. Xcitations confirmed he's still capable at this level when runner-up at Leicester last time and will pose the biggest threat. Non Stop can complete the 1-2-3.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Bobble/Stumble

A slip or a duck from a horse trying to leave the starting gates, often caused by the surface giving way under the feet. This can range from a mild misstep to a stumble down to their knees.

Track Bias

Trifecta

A wager picking the first, second and third horses in the exact order. A trifecta box means paying more to ensure the horses can finish in any order in the top three spots.
