Quito, Royal Storm and Greenslades are three against the field in the finale and the vote is given to Royal Storm Quito rates the main danger as he won well at Doncaster in a Listed race over 6 furlongs last time when defeating Millennium Force. He is a really likeable type who has form on the AW on this track and he should go really well. Royal Storm finished behind Quito in that race but he has a massive pull in the weights here and he should be capable of reversing the placings. Greenslades looks to be well-in here but he is proving frustrating to follow and he can't be backed with any real confidence. However, he is capable of winning a race of this nature so it would be dangerous to dismiss him too lightly. Moayed is from a yard that does well here and he is another worthy of a mention, but for the winner we return to Royal Storm.
