Verdict

Only five runners but all can be given a chance. Beau Select is the only one with a recent outing when runner-up at Kempton last month and a 5lb claimer helps his cause today. High Troja and Storming should both be capable of better this year and Open Letter won a nursery at Yarmouth in September before finishing second at this track over a shorter trip. REGAL HAWK also steps up a furlong after making a winning debut here in October over the extended mile and James Tate's filly gets the vote to remain unbeaten in a wide-open contest.
