        Verdict

        This should not take a great deal of winning and, at what look to be favourable weights, the vote goes to Chiselled ahead of Danish Blues and Katie Killane. The last mentioned has been running with credit in banded races of late and has claims on recent evidence but even this lowly contest represents a step up in class. Champagne Moment takes a drop in class and is relatively unexposed but has given little cause for optimism this season, while Sarah's Art needs to improve on recent form to trouble the judge. Danish Blues has shown improved form since being switched to the minimum trip and has to be considered but the vote goes to Chiselled. Karl Burke's gelding has an obvious chance at the weights and is entitled to come on for his recent reappearance.
