        Verdict

        Justcallmehandsome gets the confident vote here with Alzarma and Doughty rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Bahrain Gold last time out in a similar race. This looks easier and from a good draw he is hard to oppose. Alzarma rates the main danger on his latest third behind Pearl Island, especially as the drop in trip is sure to suit. Doughty is another that could go well now that he is dropped in class in first time blinkers and he should be closely watched in the market. Pawn In Life is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but for the winner we return to Justcallmehandsome.
