      Verdict

      Bleu Superbe looks the one to be with here and he is taken to score at the main expense of Ball O Malt and Argento. The selection is a course and distance winner and he is in good form at present having only just been beaten by Oneway at Sandown last time. That was a really good effort and if he can reproduce that here then he will be difficult to beat. Ball O Malt is a likeable type and although he was a little disappointing last time, he did not have the ground to suit that day. This surface will be much more to his liking and he is respected. Argento would have chances on his best form but he is not the most reliable of jumpers and he is opposed on that basis. Winchester put up his best effort for some time when last seen out, but we will stick with Bleu Superbe as our idea of the winner.
