Verdict
Some familiar characters to fans of the all weather are set to come into opposition here and it is not an easy task in fathoming out whose turn it will be today. Promised, Mallard and Basinet are all shortlisted as dangers and are worth monitoring for support when the betting opens. But Anemos appeals as the likeliest winner after a series of good efforts recently. He is still well treated on the pick of his form and his resolution in a finish edges him a narrow vote over Crusoe, whose overall profile suggests that he will find a few too good.
