Verdict
Abbajabba, Ulysees and Dizzy In The Head are three against the field in this tight classified race and the tentative vote goes to Ulysees. The selection was well behind Fantasy Believer in a better race last time out but he was only beaten seven lengths and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. Abbajabba rates the main danger on his best form but he has been slightly disappointing of late so can not be backed with any confidence. Dizzy In The Head is another that could go well she was outpaced over five furlongs last time but with this return to her optimum trip sure to suit she is a danger to all. Of the remainder Legal Set may get an easy lead her and if he does he will not be far away but he has not been at his best of late. The remainder have shown very little of late and are readily opposed and for thew winner we return to Ulysees.
