Verdict

No Refuge, gets the confident vote with Lady Zephyr and Give Me Love rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Ladalko last time out will appreciate the step up in trip and need only run up to that mark to score. Lady Zephyr rates the main danger she won well last time out when defeating Mistress Banjo but this looks tougher and for that reason she is opposed. Give Me Love is another worthy of respect on his best form but he did not appear to stay this trip last time and for that reason he is passed over. Of the remainder Heroes Collonges was a top class horse when last seen and is worth noting in the market but he may need the run after a three year absence and for the winner we return to No Refuge.
