SELECT COMMITTEE won going away at Beverley last time and given that was a latest in a decent run of form John Quinn's runner is taken to win again. Rio's Girl, a dual winner earlier in the season, still seems to be improving as she only found one too good last tiem and despite this higher mark she should run well. Angelo Poliziano is running well but the handicapper keeps taking notice while Bedloe's Island is consistent and made a very pleasing return to action on which he should build on. This looks open but Select Committee gets the narrow vote.
