Verdict

A low-key finale but LISDARRAGH is the only course and distance winner on show and has gone close here the last twice, beaten just a half length and a neck respectively. All three runs were under Harry Burns and the duo should be involved at the business end again, despite another 4lb rise. Largo Bay only landed a seller at Lingfield earlier this month but did so in some style and should be in the shake-up as he appears to hold Love Of Zoffany. However, it's the latter's stablemate Miss Roulette who looks the biggest danger. Crystal Guard and the unexposed Orchestral look best of the rest.
