        Verdict

        A typical course maiden where a number of the leading contenders are in need of a confidence booster, so it would not be surprising to see a tactical affair unfold. And Count Walewski, as the obvious form horse, is the one they all have to beat - with Estimation and Exzilerating the two to concentrate on if there is going to be a minor upset. However, the John Dunlop-trained selection has fared well in his three outings this season and has shaped as if a modest contest such as this is his for the taking. The slight drop in trip will be in his favour and he has conditions to suit. Exzilerating has a tendency to run a little freely on occasions so Estimation may give Count Walewski the most to do. An each way move for Fitz The Bill will also be a significant pointer towards any confidence behind his chance.
