        Verdict

        Esprit de Corps, gets the vote here with Fair Spin and Just Waz rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Sa Nau and although having a penalty for that win he looks sure to improve for this longer trip and he is taken to win again. Fair Spin rates the main danger as he won well last time out but this looks tougher and he will need to improve again to win off this higher mark. Just Wazz is another that could go well as he was behind Fair Spin last time but he is weighted to beat him here. Parchment is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is another that looks weighted up to his best. Of the remainder Onyergo has yet to prove he stays this far and with this in mind for the winner we return to the progressive Esprit de Corps.
