        In depth

        Verdict

        Bollin Thomas, Millenium Hall and Polish Flame are worth consideration here, and we take Millenium Hall to return to winning form. Bollin Thomas hails from the inform Tim Easterby yard and will appreciate the ground conditions here. However, he was something of a disappointment last time after two good efforts and he is passed over. Polish Flame was a staying on third to Millenium Hall at Hamilton and as that was only his second outing of the season he will come on for the run and should go close. Millenium Hall though is the one to beat. He was a good third to a winner who hailed from an in form stable last time and will appreciate the extra distance here. He can confirm form with Polish Flame and Millenium Hall is the selection.
