        Verdict

        A tight one to call but a chance is taken with the consistent Formal Bid, who deserves a change of fortune after going close in good company in his last handful of outings. Search And Destroy and the lightly raced Full Minty are hard to split on recent form and should give the selection plenty to think about as they also have the benefit of race fitness on their side. In contrast to Black Frost, who is capable on his day but has a 209-day absence to overcome. Father Mulcahy adds a further dimension to the contest after winning a three-runner event over course and distance at the start of the month. However, he has never really been noted for consistency and is opposable in this company. Therefore, Formal Bid, who does not seem to know how to run a bad race, is selected as the one likeliest to exploit a good chance at the weights.
