      Verdict

      A wide open handicap gets proceedings underway and there is very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Marko Jadeo, Green Pirate and Avontuur and the narrow vote is given to Marco Jadeo. The selection won well last time out when beating Night Prospector granted that was a seller but this is not much better. Green Pirate rates the main danger as he beat Another Genepi last time out and is sure to run his race but he may just be in the handicappers grip now. Avontuur is another that could go well but all his best form is over a longer trip. Of the remainder Hamaasy goes well fresh and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Marco Jadeo to small stakes.
