      Verdict

      Fuschia gets the vote here with Gyroscope and Supa Sal rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Cassiara, that form has since been franked and off what looks a lenient mark she looks the value bet. Gyroscope rates the main danger as she won well last time out when beating Truly Enchanting in a maiden, this looks tougher but she is well bred and could be anything so should be watched in the market. Supa Sal is unbeaten to date and defeated Kings Apostle with plenty in hand last time out, this looks tougher but she is another that could improve. Of the remainder, Crystal Gazer is in form but her best efforts have come on the all weather while Roshanka has conditions to suit and could go well at a price. But in a race that throws up more questions than answers, for the winner we return to Fuschia to small stakes.
