      Verdict

      An intriguing stayers' contest where a few have chances, namely Patxaran, Industrial Star, Key Time and Ten Carat, and we will take a chance on topweight Ten Carat. Martin Todhunter does not run too many on the level and he can get the upper hand over the flat boys. This thorough stayer has won off marks higher than this in the past, gets this trip well on fas ground, and has first time blinkers to sharpen him up and we're going to give him the nod. Key Time is a massive danger and may even start odds-on. It may seem like folly opposing a Sir Mark Prescott runner in a race like this, but he was beaten off this mark last time and despite the status of his connections they can't win every time and so we are prepared to oppose. Industrial Star is up 4lb for a gutsy c&d win last time. That looks fair and he will make a bold bid once more, while locally trained Patxaran is interesting stepped up to this trip and market support would probably be significant. But Ten Carat has been given a chance by the handicapper and he can take gold.
