Barring accidents, this race lies between the recent winners Stop Talking and DESTINED TO SHINE. The Jennie Candlish-trained mare is a improved performer for wind surgery and should handle this step up in trip being a half-sister to the 3m hurdle winner High Ho Sheriff, but last week's 10L Hereford scorer is preferred. Kerry Lee's 6yo Dubai Destination gelding ploughed through the rain-softened ground beating Soulsaver in a determined manner. Switched to a conditional jockeys' race under a 7lb penalty (with Jonjo O'Neill Jnr aboard), he looks primed for a continued winning spell with rain now becoming an ever increasing fixture.
