Verdict

Faithisflying, Rocky Reppin and Emperor Cat look the three to concentrate on in this contest and the vote is given to Faithisflying. The selection won well last tim,e out when beating Tommytyler in good style last time out and from a good draw he is taken to win again. Rocky Reppin rates the main danger on his latest second behind La Musique. However he is hard to win with and at likely odds he looks worth taking on. Emperor Cat is another with place claims but he often snatches defeat out of the jaws of victory and is another to have reservations about. Of the remainder Dexileos is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Faithisflying who at least knows how to get his head in front.
