In depth
Verdict
A wide open affair in which many have chances on there best form but the main protagonists appear to be Sad Mad Bad, Mister Dave's, and Roman Outlaw but a chance is taken on Sireric. The gelding from the Robert Johnson yard has held his form well through out the season goes on any ground and although he has never won off a mark this high before this is a moderate race and he will be hard to beat. Mister Dave's ran well after a long break last time out. He is sure to strip a lot fitter here and he has definite place claims on his best form. Sad Mad Bad is well in on his best form and is another worthy of consideration. However his best efforts of late have come with much more cut in the ground. Roman Outlaw is another well weighted on his best form but most of his victories have come at Newcastle and for that reason he is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Blue Irish and King Of The forest are from yards in top form and are worth a cautionary look in the market.
