      In depth

      Verdict

      Tirallieur, Spy Gun and Ace Club are three against the field in another trappy affair and the narrow vote is given to Spy Gun. The selection has dropped to a handy mark and ran as if about to return to form last time out, this looks easier and from a good draw he will be be hard to beat. Ace Club has dropped to a handy mark and could go well at a price but he is far from consistent so can not be put forward with any confidence.. Tiraileur was a fair second last time out and is another with place claims but at likely odds he looks worth opposing.Meljin is another worthy of respect on his best form he looks sure to have the race run to suit and from a good draw he could go well at a price but in a poor race and where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Tirallieur
