Verdict

Sarah's Art is taken to land the finale with Nahaar and Mimiteh the main dangers. The selection has been in cracking form of late and seems to have taken off since the fitting of blinkers. He ran with credit in defeat last time at Kempton when he was chasing the hat-trick, and if he runs up to that level again here should come out on top. Nahaar is making his handicap debut and this 3-year-old from the Marcus Tregoning yard is worth noting in the market. However, he was well beaten in a maiden at Lingfield last month so will need to step-up on that effort. Mimiteh may therefore give our selection the most to think about as she ran really well on her seasonal reappearance before tiring close home and finishing fourth behind Fangorn Forest. She is sure to come on for the run and is respected. Ten Commandments is from a yard in form and is another with each-way claims, but for the winner we will stick with Sarah's Art.
