      Verdict

      A seller full of unexposed sorts greets us here and as this is a little short of strength in depth we side with the slightly progressive HACHI ahead of Carries Lass and Polly Macho. We've seen improvement in each of the selection's three starts so far with the latest seeing her chase home an odds-on shot to claim a runners-up berth. The form is yet to work out from that race but her penultimate effort reads wel tool and she looks to be the only one in this field heading in the right direction. Carries Lass hasn't shown a lot of in improvement in a trio of efforts and has over four lengths to find on the pick after their meeting last time out. Polly Macho steps down into selling company for the first time after some solid efforts in some average maidens. He should be seen in a better light in this grade and should go well on this fast ground. George Baker's Vested Interest stepped up on a solid debut to run a big race last time out while Ytartfawn could make experience count and get into the places.
