    Verdict

    Top Bid gets the confident vote here with Kaladar and Abdu rating the main dangers. The selection was a good fourth under similar conditions behind Vital Equine. He is sure to have learnt from the experience and given nominal improvement he will be hard to beat. Kaladar rates the main danger on his debut fifth behind Avertuoso. He is another that is sure to improve and with his yard in top form he should be watched in the market. Abdu was eighth behind Kerrys Dream on her debut and is another that could improve but the suspicion is he will be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time. Of the remainder Kaptain Kate is related to winners but may improve for the experience and with this in mind for the winner we return to Top Bid.
