Verdict

Can Can Star is the obvious form horse here and he gets the vote ahead of Russian Dream and Double Spectre. Tony Carroll runs three in this contest and Shane Kelly takes the ride on the selection. The combination were successful at Wolverhampton in January when beating Ansell's Pride, before just getting touched off at the same track by Penang Cinta. He is only two pound higher this afternoon and can return to winning ways against mainly out of form rivals. Russian Dream has been running better than his form figures suggest and the drop back in trip should suit. Meanwhile Double Spectre showed plenty of promise on his recent return to the flata nd should improve. Garrulous is an outsider with place claims, but we return to Can Can Star as the likely winner.
