      Verdict

      A number of these are in good form and narrow preference is for EFISTORM over What Katie Did and Our Piccadilly. The selection won well last time when he beat Our Piccadilly over this course and distance. Our Piccadilly is weighted to get closer today, but Efistorm won with a bit in hand last time and we take him to confirm superiority here from a good draw. What Katie Did is hard to ignore as she could not be in better form. She is chasing the four-timer and she did win well at Windsor when last seen out. Princess Rose Anne won last time but she was all-out to do so and this looks tougher. Course and distance winner Hereford Boy is another worth a mention, but for the winner we will stick with Efistorm.
