Verdict

A few with chances but VALIRANN GOLD goes well round here and is taken to bag a third course victory on the back of a plucky Ffos Las second last time out. Land Girl's Luck rates a big threat if, as expected, building on an encouraging chasing debut fourth at Exeter, while Gata Ban is weighted to go well if on her A-game here.
