        Verdict

        Ermine Grey lacks a recent run but has to be of interest off a fair mark for his return; however, more solid claims are held by Don Pasquale, who gets the vote with Willie Ever rated the pick of the remainder. The selection showed improved form at Southwell last time and a reproduction of that effort back on the Polytrack may well suffice. Bobering has shown a consistent level of form and should be thereabouts again, while Autograph Hunter has slipped to a decent mark but has given little sign of encouragement of late. Boppys Pride has not progressed as much as may have been anticipated and of more interest may be the unexposed Willie Ever. Don Pasquale holds solid claims though and he is preferred.
