        Verdict

        Another wide open contest in which many have chances on their best form including Samhari, Salcombe, Castleshane and Silence Is Golden and we will take a chance on Samhari. The colt from the David Loder yard was a fair fourth behind Nuit Sombre last time out and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. Salcombe rates the main danger he was a good second behind Heretic off this mark last time and with conditions again in his favour he has definite place claims. Castleshane is at the top of his game at the moment but he has not won off this mark for a long time and he will be taken on for the lead so he is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Solo Flight is from a yard in form and he could go well at a big price off what looks a fair mark but we are happy to stick with the top weight Samhari.
