Verdict

Hartshead, Samuel Charles and Efidium are three against the field in another tough race to call with the vote going to Hartshead. The selection is improving with each race and won well last time out when defeating Smirfy's Systems, this looks tougher but he is improving quickly and if her lasts out this longer trip he will be hard to beat. Samuel Charles rates the main danger on his best form and he won well last time out when defeating Brave Dane he will appreciate the faster ground and he has definite place claims. Efidium is another worthy of respect but he just gave the impression thew handicapper had caught up with him when second behind African Sahara and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Neon Blue is better with more cut in the ground while a market move for Night Air should be noted as he is unexposed and is from a shrewd yard but for the winner we return to Hartshead.
