    Verdict

    David Loder and Jamie Spencer have proved a formidable combination of late and the pair can strike once more with newcomer Heisse. A Darshaan half-brother to a very useful French middle distance winner, the selection looks the part on breeding and wouldn't have to be anything out of the ordinary to land a weak affair. John Dunlop's Rawwah has failed to make much impact in maiden company over shorter distances but may find a little improvement over this longer trip. The son of Nashwan is the obvious choice for forecast backers ahead of Transit, who remians exposed as being only modest.
