Verdict

CORSO PALLADIO has made a sparkling return after a prolonged absence and with such a comfortable win last time he gets the vote despite a penalty. Clueless looks as his name suggests, particularly over timber, whilst Mad Moose hasn't jumped fluently in his two most recent starts. It is hard to get away from the pick, Corso Palladio.
