        Verdict

        Reem Two gets the confident vote with Miss Kilkeel and Zahunda rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Dewasentha last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and she need only reproduce that effort to score. Miss Kilkeel rates the main danger as she won well last time out when beating Hard To Credit but she will need to improve again to win this under her penalty.Zahunda is another that could go well on her best form and she is one of the least exposed in the field so at least she has some scope for improvement and should be watched in the market. The remainder have shown very little and are readily opposed and for the winner we return Reem Two.
