Mercurious, The Kelt and Our Imperial Bay are three against the field in a tough race to call and the tentative vote goes to Mercurious. The selection was a fair fourth behind Prince Of The Wood last time and wit the drop in trip sure to suit he will be hard to beat. The Kelt rates the main danger. He won well last time out when defeating Tom Bell but he will find this harder under a penalty and over a shorter trip. Our Imperial Bay is another that could go well he was a fair third behind Maniatisat last time and with this longer trip sure to suit he will not be far away. Of the remainder Sea Cove is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Mercurious.
