Verdict
Light Des Mulottes gets the confident vote here with Dragon King, and Toulouse rating the main dangers. The selection has won his last two races in good style and won well last time when defeating Jongleur Collonges. Granted he is rising in the weights but he won with a shade in hand and under conditions that suit he is taken to win again. Dragon King rates the main danger on his best form but he just gave the impression he was in the handicappers grip when third behind Walcot Lad last time and for that reason he is opposed. Toulouse was a fair second behind Runner Bean last time and is sure to be suited by the step up in trip but he is hard to win with and for that reason he is opposed. Sacrifice was a fair second behind Totheroadyouvgone last time and is another with place claims as that form has since been franked. Kadito has a long absence to overcome and is readily opposed and for the winner we return to Light Des Mulottes.
