    Verdict

    Dado Mush can take the spoils with Full Victory and Yakimov expected to give him most to do. Dado Mush looked something of a force over the course of the winter but he was put away after a flop behind Sophia Gardens in January. If connections have got to the bottom of that problem, there is every reason to suggest that he can continue to progress onward. Full Victory won a competitive race in good style at Beverley. His turf form is certainly good enough to win this but can he translate it onto this surface. Yakimov has made hay bullying weaker opposition in claimers. He looks good when on the bridle but when he was posed questions last week, the halo slipped dramatically. Councellor is back to a winning mark. He has obliged at the track previously. Red Romeo has it to do. Dado Mush may have a couple of questions to answer but he can stand up to examination.
