        Verdict

        On paper this seller looks a three horse race between Amazing Blue Sky, Cause For Applause and SWISS ART with the last named getting the verdict.Ron Harris' charge found a step up to a mile at this track the perfect recipe last time winning on his first attempt at the trip on the fibresand. That victory came in an almost identical contest and he had he had his two main rivals well beaten.Cause For Applause was about four lengths back in fourth place that day but was giving the pick a pound. This time, however, he re-opposes with a six pound weight swing in his favour so it is plausible that form could be over turned; plausible but not likely.Amazing Blue Sky was three lengths behind the selection in that race and was giving him five pounds but this time they compete off level terms so things could be tighter, especially has Amazing Blue Sky held his form well next time up. To be honest it's hard to find anything to recommend the others so we'll stick with these three and Swiss Art to be a picture perfect winner.
