Verdict
MOONDHARRIG has run below form on his last 3 turf starts, but looks interesting now returning to all-weather having progressed notably well on this surface in the first half of 2024, so he gets the nod. The lightly-raced Quickshot is well worth a try at this longer trip given how he shaped on his most recent outing here in the spring, while Enziya did quite well under the circumstances at Limerick and seems likely to go well again.
