Race Tip

At declaration stage it is the biggest renewal since 2012 and the Moore team can enhance their strong Sandown strike rate with MONDO MAN (17). This smart flat performer was impressive twelve days ago scoring by 33L a 2m maiden hurdle at Plumpton on the back of a good premier handicap fourth at Ascot. Leading contender. WRECKLESS ERIC (14) recorded an excellent 0. 5L second in this race last year. Not disgraced when sixth on heavy going at Newbury. Main danger. Winning this last year GO DANTE (4) remains unbeaten at this venue and having won the last two renewals makes plenty of appeal. GENERAL BRIAR (22) bids for a 2m hat-trick after victories at Plumpton and Newbury. Interesting. AFADIL (21) was a close third in this event last year. Might feature.
