        Verdict

        A tight race to call but a chance is taken that Nichol Fifty make the most of a very lenient mark, and he may be the value selection against the likes of Blackthorn, San Marco and Raybaan, who are all respected at this level; but are not the most consistent of horses to follow. Nichol Fifty won this off a similar mark last term, and comes into the race after a similar preparation. he will have no problem with the ground and will be staying on when others have cried enough. Blackthorn narrowly appeals as best of the rest to chase him home.
