Verdict

A competitive field goes to post for this seller and many can be given chances on their best form but the principals look to be Comfortable Call, Fruit Defendu and Jardin Fleuri and we will take a chance on Comfortable Call. The selection won well last time out when defeating Bergamo that form has since been franked and although he is rising in the weights he will be hard to beat despite top weight. Fruit Defendu rates the main danger he was a fair second behind Musimaro last time but although he travels well in his races he finds little off the bridle and for that reason he is opposed. Jardin Fleuri is another that could go well he won a similar race a couple of runs ago when defeating Ben Moore before disappointing in a chase the switch back to hurdles will suit and he is a danger to all. Of the remainder Silver Dagger is from a top yard and is drooping in grade so is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to comfortable Call.
