      Verdict

      A two horse race that will be fought out by Kochanski and SOUNDS OF JUPITER with the vote going to the last named. The selection does have top to carry and will have to produce a personal best to score but he does come into the race off the back of two decent runs and if recapturing his best he is sure to be in the shake up once again. Kochanski has the benefit of thirteen pounds less to carry which gives her a distinct advantage but her form does lack the same level of consistency and for that reason we will take her on. Of the remainder of the field Lilly Blue has shown enough to be respected but she will have to improve to trouble the market leaders. So for the winner we return to Sounds of Jupiter.
