Verdict

Adobe and Cat Ona High are worthy of strong consideration but we will take a chance on Uhoomagoo, who has got finishing speed to take this race. The selection can be frustrating to follow and sometimes gets outpaced early on in races, but he ran a cracker at Newmarket last time in a hot race, and if he is close enough to the leaders inside the final two furlongs he has a burst of speed which will take him past the others. Adobe is the main threat, especially as he is capable of setting a strong pace, although he was disappointing last time. Cat Ona High is running well at the present and is another who can't be discounted, but Uhoomagoo is in good heart and will be hard to beat.
