Verdict

It's the standard, tricky to call, bumper to end proceedings where the market might be you best guide but without it we opt for PREMIER SAGAS to build on a promising debut with the dangers looking to be from Butter and new comer Cool Mission. The pick from Nicky Richards' yard was very pleasing on his racecourse debut staying on really well to claim a place. The form from that race is looking good with many running well in better races since and he is the percentage call here. Butter also grabbed a place on debut in a race to produce two subsequent winners. one in a better contest. However he did look a little one paced and could be vulnerable to one staying on late. Cool Mission is the most interesting new comer with plenty of winning stayers on the level in the family. The yard isn¿t shy at backing their charges so a market check is advised to this one¿s chances. Canal Cottage is rated one pound better than the selection but the form from his debut run is weak. Also worth a mention is Arty Farmer who was no more than solid on debut but the line from the race is working out well enough. This is as tricky as usual for a bumper but the vote goes to Premier Sagas.
