Verdict

Million Percent gets our vote in the finale with Blue Maeve and Piccolo Prince the most likely dangers. The selection hails from a stable in form and he does have his ground conditions today on his return to the turf after a spell racing on the all-weather. This race will not take a great deal of winning and he looks the most likely option. Piccolo Prince won well last time at Pontefract when beating Mynd on heavy ground. He has got claims but he is not as good on a faster surface and for that reason he is opposed today. Blue Maeve ran well over 7f at Wolverhampton last time behind Spark Up, but he is better over this trip and is worth consideration. Crystal Mystic is game and consistent and is another with place prospects, but for the winner we will stick with Million Percent.
