Verdict

Staying is the name of the game this time and, as such, Manhunter is selected over Luxembourg, who is the best alternative, while Ello Ollie heads the list out of the rest. Each-way cases can also be made for Gamblers Dream and Cedar on the best of their efforts and they are worth noting in the market. Whereas Another Artiste has a fair bit to do on last season's form and he is passed over. Therefore, we return to Manhunter for the main selection as he should have no problems with the trip and should appreciate this faster surface. The performance of Yesyes in the previous race will give a good indication as the how he will figure today and it may be prudent to play a waiting game to pick up the market vibes. Which, if negative will hand the baton on to Luxembourg, who stays well and has not been over faced in this company.
