Verdict

Bidable can land a tricky finale at the expense Palmetto Point and Zelos. The selection has been nothing but consistent this season and finally got her head in front at Chepstow. A four pound rise in the weights looks fair as she looked value for her winning distance and with that in mind she should have little bother in following up. Palmetto won at Warwick back in June and has run well in defeat since. He ran well behind Alberts Story at Carlisle last time out and if putting in a repaet performance he has a live chance. As does Zelos who won a claimer at Lingfield back in July and has since run well in better races so is respected. But for the winner we return to Bidable.
