Verdict
Finicius won over 7f on the Flat so there must be a doubt about him lasting home over this trip. Anoosou will be fancied to go one better than at Tipperary last month but this can go to GOD'S COUNTY, who should appreciate this drop in distance having twice found one too good over 2m4f recently. Space Race appears to be improving with experience and may prove the pick of the remainder ahead of For Dylan and Separate Ways.
