Verdict
The Granby, Shiny Bay, Coolefind and Tricky Trevor look the ones to concentrate on in a tough race to call for punters and the tentative vote goes to Shiny Bay. The selection was disappointing behind Mullensgrove last time out but prior to that he had been in fair form. This faster ground should suit and he will not be far away. The Granby rates the main danger he has been in fair form of late and was a fair seventh behind Bahamian Spirit last time that form has since been franked and this faster ground will also be in his favour.Coolfined is another worthy of respect, he is unbeaten between the flags in his last five starts and being a six-year-old he has plenty of scope for improvement, so he is worth a cautionary look in the market. Of the remainder.Tricky Trevor has the ability to go close but he continues to be beset by jumping problems and for the winner we return to Shiny Bay.
