      Verdict

      This is a tricky race for punters to call but Ermine Grey, Fit To Fly and Key of Gold are the main protagonists and the confident nomination is given to Ermine Grey. The selection is a course and distance winner and he ran his best race of the season when a close third behind Futoo at Haydock last time. Charlotte Vale who finished fifth in that race went on to frank the form by winning at Thirsk on Thursday, and as our selection is now dropped to arguably his best trip he looks to hold solid claims. Fit To Fly ran well on the turf on his handicap debut and he is another that is proven on the surface. He could go well but he will have to improve to beat our selection. Key of Gold would have chances on the pick of his form, but may just need this his first run of the season. Cotosol is a course and distance winner who merits respect but he has been a little disappointing of late and for that reason we are happy to take him on. The rest will have to improve to trouble our selection and we make Ermine Grey the confident choice.
