      Verdict

      Mine Behind gets the confident vote in this seller with Plateau and Mulberry Lad rating the main dangers. The selection has plenty in hand on official bhb figures has conditions to suit and with the race also looking as if it will be run to his strengths he will be hard to beat. Plateau rates the main danger on his best form but he has been missing the break of late. However if he breaks on terms he will not be far away but that is a big if. Mulberry Lad was well beaten behind Sovereignty last time but is dropping in grade. Of the remainder Devon Flame would be a danger to all on his best form but he would be much better off with the selection if this were a handicap and for the winner we return to Mine Behind who has plenty of ticks in the right boxes.
