Verdict
Nesno has been knocking on the door of late and can get his head in front this time around at the expense of Annibale Caro and Keisha Kayleigh. The selection has caught the eye on his last three outings and most notably when second to Hunting Country at Nottingham on his last outing. He is rated twenty pounds less than at his best and although he has been lightly raced throughout his career we feel that he has conditions in his favour to win for the first time in over two years. Annibale Caro is nothing but consistent and will always give his followers a good run for their money. He completed his hat-trick of wins back in May and although he has shot up over a stone in the ratings since then he has still run well in defeat so is one to note. Keisha Kayleigh is another consistent type and was not discredited when second of eleven at Doncaster last time out. He is racing off a career high mark but is still one for the short list.
