Verdict

A wide open bumper rounds off the card and as usual in these events the market will be all important but the principals look to be Beherayn,Galoshes and Super Martina and the tentative vote is given to Beherayn. The selection was a fair third behind Den of Iniquity last time out, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and under conditions that suit he looks the one to be on. Galoshes rates the main danger as he won well on his debut when beating Fermat but he will do well to defy his penalty on this faster ground and he looks opposable on that basis.Super Martina is another that could go well as she hails from a yard that does well in this sphere and this Flemensfirth mare out of Runaway Tina should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Kikos hails from a yard in top form asnd looks sure to have improved for his debut effort but in a race where the market will be very informitive for the winner we return to Beherayn.
