        Verdict

        Russian Virtue had been winning over hurdles and on the Flat before beaten over a longer trip here. International Law also drops down in distance but PALLAS LORD was beaten less than a length over track and trip on his penultimate start and may prove the one to side with. Snag It has won off higher marks and headgear is reapplied but Cusack has a lengthy absence to overcome.
