Verdict

Another tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading fancies however the principals look to be State of Balance, Kelseas Kolby, Londoner and Blue Java and the tentative vote goes to State Of Balance. The selection won well last time out when defeating Anyhow and although the drop in trip is not sure to suit he won in the style of an improver and is taken to win again. Kelseas Kolby rates the main danger he was caught on the post last time by band but he remains on the same mark here and he will not be far away. Londoner has shown improved form this season but he is still far from consistent and he may not get the race run to suit so for that reason he is opposed. Blue Java was fifth behind Don't Call me Derek last time but that form has since been let down so he is passed over occasion. The remainder are out of form so can not be put forward with any confidence and for the winner we return to State Of Balance.
