Evelith Forrest gets the confident vote here with Negus de Beaumont and Im A Witness rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind What A Scientist last time out and with the step up in trip likley to bring about more improvement he is hard to oppose. Negus de Beaumont rates the main danger as he was a fair fifth behind Chief Dan George last time out in a grade 2 and this represents a drop in class so he should be noted in the market. Im A Witness is another that could go well on his latest second behind Great Approach but he is becoming hard to win with. Of the remainder Colline de Fleurs is from a yard that is begining to hit form and is another that could go well but for the winner we return to Evelith Forrest.
