        Verdict

        Another tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Moody Tunes,Heureux and The Osteopath and the narrow vote is given to Moody Tunes. The selection was a good second off this mark behind Best Guess last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and with the return to this longer trip also in his favour he looks the one to be on.Heureux rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Formal Decree but he just gave the impression he was in the handicappers grip on that occasion and he looks opposable on that basis. The Osteopath was a fair sixth in a better race behind Fantastisch and is another with place claims but he looks weighted up to his best . Airbound is unexposed and with his yard beginning to find its form he should be closely watched in the market. Of the remainder Rubenstar is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with and for the winner we return to Moody Tunes.
