Race Verdict
At the prices, COMMEMORATION DAY is worth taking a chance on having come back down to what looks an attractive mark. Forgiven a somewhat lacklustre reappearance at Ludlow last month, the 11-year-old is saved for the better summer ground these days and, while he must defy top weight, the drop in class is expected to suit. Hurricane Carter maintains a healthy level of enthusiasm for the game at the age of 12 and is another to consider closely, while Cardigan Island rates best of the rest.
Selection: Commemoration Day
Danger: Hurricane Carter
