        Verdict

        A tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Shade Cozy,Kensington and Kennington and the tentative vote is given to Shade Cozy. The selection won well last time when beating Mirasol Princess and although having a penalty for that win he is taken to defy the handicapper under conditions that suit. Kensington rates the main danger on his latest third behind Holiday Cocktail but he has been done no favours by the draw here and he looks opposable on that basis. Kennington is another worthy of respect as he is sure to strip fitter here than he did for his latest run which saw him finish fourth behind Owed. However he still looks weighted up to the hilt. Of the remainder Greenwood looks to be on a handy mark and with his yard in for could run well at a price but for the winner we return to Shade Cozy.
