    Verdict

    The finale on the card should represent a straightforward opportunity for Thorntoun Holm, with Firstflor and Nice N Spicey the only other runners. The selection won well on his debut at Fontwell beating Indian Chase, and although he ran a little green on that day, he looks a class above his rivals here. Nice N Spicey has shown nothing in his two runs to date so would have to show a massive improvement to trouble our selection, while Firstflor hails from the Frank Jordan yard but is not expected to be good enough to take this. There is no great strength in this race, so despite the prohibitive odds, Thorntoun Holm gets the confident vote.
