        Verdict

        The shortlist here contains Tally, Siraj and Lucius Verrus, with maybes about Saffron River, Shifty Night and Laurel Dawn, and the vote going to Tally. The selection put in a good run over five furlongs at Wolverhampton last time, and could well build on that over this longer trip. He has also won over course and distance from a higher mark in the past. Siraj is also a course and distance scorer and was only just touched off over course and distance last time, when his usual blinkers were left off. A repeat of that run gives him solid claims, while Lucius Verrus put in a fair effort on his first run of the year last time and, over this longer trip, could improve further and get in the shake-up. Shifty Night battled well to score over course and distance two runs ago, but then disappointed at Lingfield when racing too keenly, but Saffron River will need the first-time blinkers to work the oracle if he is to score. Finally, Laurel Dawn is thrown in on his 2003 form and, despite each of his wins having been gained at five furlongs, he is worth a try at six now. That's our view then, with the vote going to Tally.
