        In depth

        Verdict

        Logger Rhythm looks the obvious form choice here and can get the better of Scurra and Esquillon. The selection has produced two decent efforts here recently, including an excellent second behind Kings Envoy over this trip. This opposition, if anything looks weaker and he can get his head in front where it matters. Scurra hasn't raced on the all-weather since 2003 but has strong claims on last season's turf form, which included placed efforts of marks in the mid-fifties. Meanwhile Esquillon is capable of making the frame if things drop right. Modest hurdler Flying Patriarch is one to keep an eye on in the betting, but Logger Rhythm appears to have the best recent form on show and gets the verdict.
