    In depth

    Verdict

    Willhego, Kylkenny and Polygonal are three against the field in a tough race to call for punters and the tentative vote id given to the last named. The selection was a fair third when not getting a clear run behind Bravo Maestro. The step up in trip looks sure to suit and he looks the value bet in an open affair. Willhego rates the main danger on his latest second in a similar race but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him and for that reason he is opposed. Kylkenny goes well at the track and is another to consider but he looks weighted up to his best. Of the remainder Zonergem is on a handy mark and could go well if he ordains to put his best foot forward but for the winner we return to Polygonal.
