    Verdict

    Ponty Rossa, Rainbow Fox and Dowlleh look the three to concentrate on in this competitive affair and the narrow vote is given to Ponty Rossa. The selection won well last time when beating Rainbow Fox with a little in hand, he looks sure to improve and from a good draw he will be hard to beat. Rainbow Fox is sure to have his supporters but he will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection. Dowlleh is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he disappointed last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Juan Bol is another with place claims but his best form is over a longer trip and with this in mind for the winner we return to the progressive Ponty Rossa.
