        Verdict

        Fromsong gets the vote ahead of the likes of Green Manalishi, One More Round and Treasure Cay. Fromsong has performed well in much company in the past, and has taken well to the Polytrack, having won twice here late last year. He had Green Manalishi behind in fourth when chasing home Les Arcs in December, and was fourth to the same horse on his return to action last month. With Green Manalishi not seen out since that December clash, the selection should make the most of his fitness edge to emerge in front again. One More Round was third in that latest Les Arcs encounter, but meets Fromsong on worse terms and is another that should be held, while Treasure Cay was useful on Turf last year but might just need another run, having had only two outings since October, one of them in Nad Al Sheba. Malapropism gets weight all round and has been well galloped along with the rest of Mick Channon's team this week, but he is in and out at the best of times and is best watched. So, for the winner we return to Fromsong.
