Verdict
Halla San gets the confident vote here with Baltic Princess and Champagne Shadow rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time when beating Red River Rebel and although having a penalty for that win he looks a progressive type and he is taken to win again. Baltic Princess rates the main danger on her latest fourth behind Fourthright but she looks weighted up to her best and again looks opposable on that basis. Champagne Shadow is another worthy of respect on her latest second behind Good Article but he would not want any more rain. Of the remainder Court Of Appeal loves the track and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Halla San.
