Verdict

Namroc, Jay Gee's Choice and Anna Pallida look the three to concentrate on in this classified race and the vote goes to Namroc. The selection was a fair fourth behind Take A Bow on his last run, and that form has since been franked so under similar conditions here he will be hard to beat. Jay Gee's Choice rates the main danger as he was thought to be group class at one stage but although he has not lived up to those expectations he showed a revival and was not far away when finishing in mid-division behind Threezeddz. That was a better race than this and with his yard in better form now he will not be far away. Anna Pallida is another worthy of respect as she was well beaten behind Maclean last time but this looks easier and her style of running suggests she would be suited by this small field. However an overall view of her for suggests she has a little to find with the principals.Of the remainder Stoic Leader is from a yard in form and is worth noting in the market, but in a race where stakes should be kept to as minimum, for the winner we return to Namroc.
