        Verdict

        Possibly the most difficult race on the card and we will give a tentative vote to Fonthill Road, with Ulysees and Sir Don two of many dangers. Richard Fahey has his string in fine fettle and although the selection hasn't seen a racecourse for almost a year fitness should not be a problem. In fact he was successful first time out last term when landing a maiden on the all-weather at Southwell. His turf form also bares close inspection as he landed a similar event at Haydock last May. Ulysees caused a major shock when winning over course and distance on his seasonal bow and is weighted to go close again. Meanwhile Sir Don is now back to a winning mark and should go well at a big price. Bundy and Xanadu are two more horses hitting a bit of form, but on last season's efforts Fonthill Road has strong claims and gets the verdict.
