In depth
Verdict
Last Sovereign gets the vote here with Imperial Beach and Put It On The Card rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair third behind Going Skint last time out, he looks Put sure to improve for the weitch to turf and off a handy mark he looks the one to be on. Imperal Beach rates the main danger as he hails from a yard in form and is sure to have come on for his first run of the season and he should be watched in the market. Put It On The Card has been in good form on the allwaether of late but his form on turf leaves him with a little to find. Of the remainder Princess Palatine is another with place claims but she looks to have plenty of weight for what she has actually achived and for the winner we return to Last Sovereign.
