Verdict

Quick, Chamoss Royale, Bramlynn Brook and Korelo are four against the field in a wide open handicap hurdle and the tentative vote goes to Chamoss Royale. The selection is one of the least exposed in the field was a fair third behind Carly's Quest last time out and off what looks a fair mark and under conditions that suit he is taken to score. Quick rates the main danger he made all to win in facile fashion over course and distance last time out when defeating Attorney General but he is not likely to be allowed to get such a soft lead here and with his rise in the weights and the yard out of form he looks worth opposing. Bramlynn Brook is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Tanterari but that form has since been let down and he looks opposable on that basis. Korelo always runs well here and is sure to run his rave but he looks high enough in the weights. Of the remainder The Dark Lord is game and consistent and is another that could go well but he gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him when fifth behind Quick last time and for the winner we return to Chamoss Royale.
