RACING POST VERDICT

Tuckmill heads this 18-runner Bellewstown field on good ground over 17 furlongs and rates narrowly ahead of Paymelater on our assessments, with Garrick Painter and Codger's Rock the next best in the weights, though both face a meaningful step up to match the selection's level. The trip and conditions look entirely suitable for Tuckmill, whose rating places him clearly above the bulk of this competitive field, and high confidence in his chance is warranted. Paymelater is the likeliest danger should Tuckmill encounter any trouble in a large field, while Garrick Painter cannot be entirely dismissed if running to his best. The selection is Tuckmill.
