Verdict

Saby gets the confident vote with Bill Owen and Ryders Storm rating the main dangers. The selection was second behind Bill Owen last time out but he is much better off at the weights here and with conditions in his favour he is taken to gain his revenge. Bill Owen still rates the main danger as he is improving with each run but he needs to improve again to defeat the selection. Ryders Strorm is another worthy of respect he was a fair fourth behind Isard last time but that form has since been let down and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Sturm Und Drang is on a handy mark and could run well at a price but for the winner we return to Saby.
