        Verdict

        Royal Amnesty gets the confident vote here with Saviour Sand and Morbick rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Rebellious Spirit last time out, that form looks solid and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Saviour Sand rates the main danger as he beat Kildare Sun last time out but this looks more competitive and he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Morbrick is another worthy of respect but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him when behind Saviour Sand last time out. Tancredi is game and consistent and is sure to run her race while Merrymadcap may need the run after a 184 day break and with this in mind for the winner we return to Royal Amnesty who is at the top of his game.
