Verdict

Apollo Five gets the vote here with Princeton and Hart of Gold rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Dowellh and although this looks tougher he is taken to win this before going on to better things under conditions that suit. Princeton rates the main danger as he was a fair fourth on his debut behind Dubai Magic and is sure to improve and he should be closely watched in the market. Hart Of Gold is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Ingleby Princess but he has yet to prove he truly sees out this trip and is opposable on that basis. Of the remainder Ten Dollars More is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is more exposed than most. The remainder need to improve on there latest efforts to trouble the principals and for the winner we return to Appollo Five.
