Verdict

Possextown is imposible to oppose here with Benny The Piler and Fly Tipper rating the main dangers. The selection was a good third in a similar race last time out behind Waynesworld and with the drop in trip very much in his favour he will be hard to beat. Benny The Piler used to be a stablemate of the selection and did not progress as expected last season. However he could improve for the change of scenery and he should be watched in the market. Fly Tipper is another that could go well on his latest third behind Lutea but he has had plenty of chances in similar races without taking one and again he is opposed. Of the remainder, Return Ticket should strip fitter here than for his first run of the season but he showed very little on that occasion and may be seen to better effect in handicaps. We are therefore happy to return to Possextown as our idea of the winner.
