Verdict
This is about as competitive as the card gets, and that's not saying much, but we'll take Quantica to see off main rivals Petite Mac, He's A Rocket and Coconut Moon. The selection is a fairly consistent sort who ran up to his form last time in defeat at Ayr. He handles cut, shows enough speed to suggest he can handle this drop back in trip and as a result he will do for us. Petite Mac is another dropping back in trip and the mare has not won over this short for three years. She tends to be inconsistent and with the ground also against her she is opposed. He's A Rocket is of more interest after a couple of decent runs over the trip at Wolverhampton of late, although strictly speaking he shouldn't be good enough, while Coconut Moon returns to turf after a break and she is well capable of getting involved if fit enough. But Quantica has ticks in most of the right boxes and is taken to land the prize.
