      Verdict

      The application of blinkers for the first time can see TANASOQ register his first victory of the season here. The selection has run well in two previous efforts and with trainer Owen Burrows' horses in flying form with a 44% strike-rate (4/9) of late he is taken to get the better of the consistent Bahamian Dollar who finished a close fifth last time out. Of the remainder Major Valentine is another to have been in decent form of late and he can claim third here.
