      Verdict

      Urban gets the confident vote here with Tycoon Hall and Craven rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Kings Brook last time out, that form looks solid and off the same mark under conditions that suit he is taken to score. Tycoon Hall rates the main danger on his latest second behind Papini. He will appreciate this longer trip but he is hard to win with and he is taken on with this in mind. Craven has the ability to go close off this mark but he often finds less than expected off the bridle. The Dark Lord could go well if his jumping holds up but that is a big if and for the winner we return to Urban.
