Verdict

Maharaat gets the confident vote in the finale with Thomo and Chase The Sunset rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fifth behind At Your Request last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and under similar conditions here he need only run up to that mark to score. Thomo rates the main danger on his latest second behind Boulevardofdreams but he looked very one paced on that occasion and the drop in trip looks a worry so he is passed over on this occasion. Chase The Sunset is another worthy of respect on his best form but he ran very badly last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Red Moor is another with place claims on his latest fifth behind Say whatyousee but he is more exposed than most and for the winner we return to Maharaat who sets a fair standard.
