        Verdict

        YAFTA will be running out of friends if he can't deliver this time around. But he's already shown enough to suggest he has a race of this nature well within him and the well-bred colt edges preference this time around. Expecting has a similar profile and is going the right way, while Go Roo represents a yard that is doing well with its juveniles and he is feared most from the remainder.
