    Verdict

    This is a difficult race for punters to call to round off the card with Pipssalio, Kentucky Bullet and Dash of Magic all worth considering and the vote is given to Pipssalio. The selection put up a cracking effort at Kempton last time when second behind Make My Hay, and if he can reproduce that effort here he should go close. Kentucky Bullet is a course and distance winner who would have chances on the pick of his form, but he has been a little disappointing of late and he is passed over for that reason. Dash Of Magic ran a fair race at Haydock last time behind Santiburi Lad, and she will be suited by the return to this her best trip, so she is worthy of consideration. Of the remainder, Moyne Pleasure and Arjay are always worth a second look in these type of events, but we are happy to stick with Pipssalio who is in good form and should go well.
