Verdict

UNFORGIVING MINUTE has been making hay in similar plating races having won his last four starts at this level. He also won this contest last year and is the one to beat once again on today’s favourable terms. Gossiping drops in class but still has something to find with the likely favourite despite an apprentice’s allowance while Javelin was narrowly beaten at Wolverhampton a week ago and may prove best of the rest given Juanito Chico’s poor effort here last time.
