Verdict

A wide open finale may well go to Arry Dash with Hasaiyda and Unsuited rated as the principle dangers. The selection hasn't won for a while but he has been knocking on the door of late and he looks the percentage call with conditions to suit. Hasaiyda failed to get home over a longer trip last time at Epsom when disappointing behind Nordwind. He had previously beaten that rival over today's trip and now that he is back at his optimum distance he is entitled to plenty of respect. Unsuited has been in good form but showed signs that the handicapper was catching up with her at Newbury last time when third behind Gold Ring. Another Choice showed an improved level of form to beat Opening Ceremony last time, so he is one that should not be easily discounted, but for the winner we return to Arry Dash.
