Verdict

This doesn't look too hot a race and Prince Of Delphi gets the confident selection ahead of the consistent but exposed Kyle and Lochstar. Henry Candy has been in the winners enclosure a couple of times of late with short-priced favourites and that rend can continue today. The only four-year-old in the field he will have to give weight away but a reproduction of either of his promising runs last year should be enough to score today. Kyle hasn't been out of the top three in his seven starts to date and so is a must for place pots, however whilst he has talent that worrying trend is enough to oppose him again. Lochstar's debut was promising after an erratic start (went violently left) and he should play a part if benefiting from that experience, whilst newcomer Lithaa doesn't look anything special on paper but should be checked for market confidence. In truth this looks a good opportunity for Prince Of Delphi to win at the third time of asking.
