Verdict
China Cherub gets the confident vote in the opener with Just Down The Road and Sapphire Storm rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Kansas Gold, is sure to improve looks on a fair mark and under conditions that suit will be hard to beat. Just Down The Road rates the main danger as he also won well last time out when beating Manello but although he has won over this trip in the past his best form of late has been over further and with this in mind she looks worth taking on. Sapphire Storm is another that could go well as she also won last time out but all her best form is on the all-weather and she is passed over for that reason. Piccostar is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he looks weighted up to the hilt. Of the remainder Spectacular Show hails from a yard in form and could go well at a price but for thew winner we return to the unexposed China Cherub.
