    Verdict

    In Hope, Assumption and Bahhmirage are short-listed in this poor seller with a slight preference for In Hope. There¿s not much to suggest that any runner can win this but someone has to and In Hope gets our vote based on her recent efforts in handicap company. She was fourth behind Miss Dagger earlier this month and on that effort she is entitled to win a race of this standard. Assumption was a well-beaten third in a selling-handicap last time; she could run into a place again today. Jamie Spencer rides Bahhmirage and she is another with place claims. Our pick in a poor race is In Hope.
