        Verdict

        Greek Renaissance gets the confident vote here with Blushing Thief and Matuza rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out despite the efforts of DarryllHolland trying to get him beat when beating Evident Pride, he looks on a fair mark and from a good draw he is hard to oppose. Blushing Thief rates the main danger on his latest second behind Ingleton but he will do well to give weight and a beating to the unexposed selection. Metuza is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Prince Tamino, that form looks rock solid but although he has won over this trip in the past his best form is over the minimum distance and he is opposed for that reason. Charlie Delta is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he ran as if the handicapper had caught up with him last time out. Of the remainder Spiritual Peace is another from a yard in form and could go well at a price but his overall profile leaves him with a little to find and with this in mind for the winner we return to the unexposed Greek Renaissance.
