      Verdict

      Gifted Heir is put forwards in the finale but this looks competitive and most of the field merit consideration. Pelham Crescent has been running well enough without suggesting that he's ready to win whilst Meditation hasn't been threatening to resume winning ways of late either. Blue Eyed Eloise may be able to find some improvement but it was a very weak maiden that she won last time. Top Seed has his wellbeing to prove, King's Ransom isn't easy to win with and course specialist Buscador makes more appeal. Gifted Heir has been in good form of late for a young claimer. He won a weak contest over this course and distance back in January which appears to have done wonders for his confidence and Gifted Heir may be able to land this stronger contest with Liam Jones taking over in the saddle.
