      Verdict

      A Poor start to the proceedings but something has to win and the principals look to be Oh Vlo, Classic Rock and Magical Liaison and the vote goes to Oh Vlo. The selection from the Martin Pipe yard was a fair fifth behind Special Rate last time and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Magical Liaison rates the main danger he finished in mid-division behind Green Tango last time and this looks much easier. Classical Rock is one of the least exposed in the field but is form a shrewd yard so is worth noting in the market, the same comment applies to Miss Jessica but they will need to improve on all known form to defeat the selection Oh Vlo.
