Verdict

SIRVINO can complete the hat-trick in this handicap; the list of alternatives is headed by Arctic Cape, Veiled Applause and Just Lille. The selection hails from a yard who are in flying form and the manner of his most recent success at Musselburgh marked him down as one to stay on the right side of. He has trip and ground to suit and he can continue in his recent rich vein of form. Arctic Cape also arrives here off the back of a win but he was all-out to score last time and he looks to have more on his plate this afternoon. Just Lille looks high enough in the weights at present but he has gone well here in the past and he may be capable of running into a place. Veiled Applause disappointed here last time out but he is a course and distance winner and he has the best of the draw. John Quinn has also been having plenty of winners recently so he is certainly in with a live chance. But Sirvino could not be in better heart and he is taken to win again.
