        Verdict

        Sir Bluebird, Zafarshah, Leaping Brave and Indian Edge are a handful against the field in a wide-open affair and the tentative vote is given to Zafarshah. The selection was a fair fifth behind Sarraaf lass time out. This looks easier and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat.Sir Bluebird rates the main danger on his latest third behind Canadian Danehill. That form has since been franked but he has been done no favours by the draw and for that reason he is opposed. 1 Leaping Brave is another worthy of respect on his latest third behind The Fun Merchant but he looked onepaced over a mile and the drop in trip has to be of concern. Indian Edge is another that could go well as he is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he keeps rising in the weights without winning and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Nautical is from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Zafarshah.
