In depth

Verdict

Louisiade gets the vote in this desperate seller with Marmooq and Prince of Gold rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Besemert in similar grade last time out that form sets the standard and from a fair draw he need only run up to that mark to win this. Marmooq rates the main danger on his best form but all his best efforts are over a shorter trip and he is taken on with this in mind. Prince Of Gold looks vulnerable under top weight while Skip Of Colour is from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Louisiade.
