Verdict

Eskimo's Nest, Langston Boy and Gracie's Gift look the three to concentrate on in this wide open contest and the vote is given to Langston Boy. The selection put in a fair effort last time when finishing in mid-division behind Tom Forest. He is eased in grade and with the visor applied for the first time today that might just sharpen him up for a big run. Eskimo's Nest is a lightly-raced filly who showed promise on her first two starts but she seems to have gone backwards since then and with this in mind she is difficult to put forward with any confidence. Gracies Gift was a good second behind Quality Street at Bath last time on his first run for his new yard. He had previously run well at Southwell and in his current form he will not be far away at the finish. Alsharq hasn't shown much so far but she is lightly-raced and from a leading yard so it would be foolish to write her off just yet. This looks to be a tricky race for punters to call but for the winner we return to Langston Boy.
