      Verdict

      A desperate seller here but something has to win and the main protagonists look to be Copperbottomed, Cherished Song and Whistful Miss and the vote is given to Cherished Song. The selection was sixth behind Tapas Lad last time out, this represents a drop in class and from a yard in form she looks the one to be on. Copperbottomed rates the main danger on his latest third behind Wee Buns but he is far from straight forward and at likely odds he is taken on. Whistful Miss is dropping in class so is worth a cautionary look in the market. Of the remainder Lechero is another that is unexposed and will not have to improve much to land a blow but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Cherished Song
