In depth

Verdict

Hashima may have got in here on a very handy mark and is taken to beat Torquemada and Turks Wood. Clive Brittain's three-year-old showed plenty of promise in two maidens last season and put in a very pleasing seasonal debut when sixth behind Takhleed at Leicester. There should be plenty of improvement to come and he looks the best proposition. Torquemada rarely gets beaten far and returns to the turf following a decent winter campaign. He still looks on a decent mark and should be involved in the finish. Turks Wood can also give each-way supporters a run for their money following three placed efforts this season. Kristinor is another with possible place claims, but for the winner we have to go with Hashima.
