      Verdict

      Spear gets the confident vote to win this with Spanish Ridge and Considine rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Tresor Secret last time out, that form has since been franked and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Spanish Ridge rates the main danger as he won well last time out when beating Aoninch but he has a penalty for that win and that may just find him out. Considine is another that could go well on his best form but he ran as if the handicappers grip when behind Marias Magic last time and for that reason is opposed. Irish Ballad won well last time out when beating Sovereign Dreamer but this looks tougher and he will do well to win this off this revised mark and for the winner we return to Spear who looks a progressive type.
