Verdict

This is no better than the first division. The less-than-confident vote on this occasion goes to JOIN UP, whose looks to have as good a chance as any on his recent all-weather form and beat Excellent Vision at Wolverhampton back in December. Corrib has claims on her return to action if in the mood and makes more appeal than Kyllachy Storm over today's distance while Belle Park has the past form to figure. Lean Machine and Teen Ager may prove best of the rest.
