      Verdict

      Eternally, gets the confident vote with Itsa Monkey, and Fellbeck Fred looking the m,ain dangers. The selection was a fair third behind Goldhill Prince last time out and need only reproduce that effort to score. Itsa Monkey rates the main danger on his best form but he has plenty to find with the selection on a line through Goldhill Prince and for that reason he is opposed. Fellbeck Fred is another that could go well but he was well beaten in a seller last time so can not be backed with any confidence. Of the remainder Eternal Sunshine has shown a modicum of ability and could run into a place but for the winner we return to Eternally.
