Verdict

The drop in class could be enough to see Good Outlook shine here and, although he must be forgiven a poor performance last time, the mount of Jamie Moore is the one to be on here. Jupon Vert and Newick Park have held their own in fair company of late and are worthy of a place on the shortlist - while Saby is hard to win with and is a risky proposition for win only purposes. Golly is another that could make a fist of things if he negotiates a clear passage but he has never looked the most resilient in a finish and his claims looks best limited to a place at best. Therefore, we return to Good Outlook as the safest option in this company as his previous form looks rock-solid in the context of this race.
