Verdict

Despite carrying a penalty for his most recent win Chico Guapo is taken here to outpoint Stoic Leader and Paradise Eve. All three are quite closely matched on what they have achieved but the recent win of the selection gives him the edge on ground he has run well on in the past. He goes well for Robert Winston and his trainer is in good form. Course and distance winner Stoic Leader has a chance now he looks on a reasonable mark. He surprised a few when going close at long odds last time out and if showing the same sort of gustiness as he showed in that race then he should give the selection most to do. Maiden winner Paradise Eve looks the type who will improve with age and has done little wrong on the racetrack however this return to turf may not be to his liking and he may have to wait until he gains a bit more experience before scoring at this level.
