Verdict
Treshnish will have needed the run when fourth at Hexham but most of his rivals arrive in good form. MOORE CLOUDS was back to his best when a close third at Musselburgh and is marginally preferred to Zuckerberg, whose two good runs here last month came over further. Contre Ordre won over track and trip four weeks ago, however, while Beat The Edge has been getting closer. Heros De Moutiers makes more appeal than Ideallko of the others.
