      Verdict

      Schinken Otto gets the confident vote here with Gipsy Cricketer and Karo de Vindecy rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Il Posero last time out, that form has since been franked and off the same mark and under conditions that suit he will be hard to beat. Gipsy Cricketer rates the main danger on his latest second behind Moss Bawn but consistency is not his strong point and at likely odds he looks worth taking on. and Karo de Vindecy was behind the selection last time and on the same terms her he has a little to find. Of the remainder Salhood was a fair third behind Green Finger last time and is another with place claims but for the winner we return to Schinken Otto.
