        In depth

        Verdict

        The short listed three are Sabbiosa, Prime Powered and Papeete, with the vote going to Sabbiosa. Sabbiosa looked progressive when scoring at Chepstow last time and, even though you have to take on trust her ability to handle the surface, surely John Dunlop feels that she will. Prime Powered comes here on a roll, handles Lingfield¿s surface but has to defy a five-pounds rise from his latest win if taking this. St Savarin could be well-weighted ¿ if the trip suits ¿ Eloquent Knight has a little to prove at present, Papeete is not ruled out of a good run, while Cleaver looked unlucky at Sandown two runs ago but disappointed last time, and Dinner Date needs more than he needed to score last time. Once again, then, the vote goes to Sabbiosa.
