      Verdict

      Another wide open contest in which many have chances on there best form. The Privateer, Circuit Dancer and No Grouse are all sure to have there supporters but we prefer to take a chance on Domirati who was a good third behind Midnight Special last time over the minimum trip. He will be suited by this extra furlong and has a good draw. The Privateer rates the main danger he appeared not to stay seven furlongs last time and the drop in trip is sure to suit he to has a good draw. Circuit Dancer is another to consider as he is sure to have improved for his first run of the season. He is from a yard in form and he is well weighted on his very best form. No Grouse won easily last time out and although he has risen in the weights he has definite place claims. Bond Royal and Mardoof are from yards in form and both could run well at big prices.
