Verdict
Canada Street is impossible to oppose here with Easby Mandarin and Euro American rating the main dangers. The selection has been in good form of late and was a fair second last time out behind Good Citizen, that form has sionce been franked and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Easby Mandarin rates the nain danger on his latest second behind Eborarry but he is often let down by his jumping and he is taken on with this in mind. Euro American was a fair third behind Numero Un de Solzen last time and is sure to improve so he should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Zibeline is from a yard in form and is worth a cautionary look in the market but for the winner we return to Canada Street who need only put in a clear round to score.
