        Verdict

        Flotta, Almizan and Cansalrun are three against the field in this competitive contest and the vote is given toAlmazin. The selection won well on his debut when beating Resplendent Star. That form has since been franked and despite his penalty he will be hard to beat. . Flotta rates the main danger as he was well fancied for his hurdling debut before ultimately disappointing. However he is sure to know more here and has definite place claims. Cansalrun is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he has had plenty of chances and has given the impression in the past he would be suited by further so he is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder Its My Party won a bumper in good style last time out and could go well at a price if he takes to hurdling but in a race where the market will be very informative for the winner we return Almizan who is taken to defy his penalty.
