        Verdict

        Billy One Punch,The Grey One and Fantasy Crusader are three against the field in another open finale and the narrow nomination is given to Billy One Punch. The selection was a fair second behind Princess Lavina last time out and off the same mark here and with this slightly shorter trip looking to be in his favour he looks the one to be on. The Grey One rates the main danger as he has won off a higher mark in the past but his yard could be in better form and he is taken on with this in mind. Fantasy Crusader won well last time when beating Surdoue but this looks tougher and he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Of the remainder Recalcitrant is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with and for the winner we return to Billy One Punch.
