A tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Bermuda Pointe, Another Jewel and South Sands and the vote is given to Bermuda Pointe. The selection went well for a long way when seventh behind Youll Do For Me looks sure to be suited by the drop in trip and with his yard continuing in good form looks the one to be on. Another Jewel rates the main danger on his latest third behind Mr Ironman especially if the first time visor works the oracle. South Sands is another worthy of respect on his latest third behind Brave Villa but he remains a maiden after 17 starts. Goscar Rock is often let down by his jumping while Gemini Storm is another that is hard to win with and for the winner we return to Bermuda Pointe.
