      Verdict

      Garhoud,Josear and Armatrading look the three to concentrate on in this seller and the confident vote is given to Garhoud. The selection has shown a modicum of ability in much better races is taking a massive drop in class and with this softer ground sure to be in his favour he is hard to oppose. Josear rates the main danger on his best AW form but he was very disappointing on his return to turf last time when well backed and although this is easier he still has plenty to prove. Armatrading is another worthy of respect on his latest third behind Logistical but that form has since been let down so he is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder Tetra Sing is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Garhoud.
