      Verdict

      Aleron, Yes Sir and Karelian look the three to concentrate on in this competitive affair and the tentative vote is given to Karelian. The selection was a fair sixth behind Faasel last time out. This looks easier and under conditions that suit he looks the one to beat. Aleron rates the main danger on his latest second behind Queen Soraya but that form has since been let down and he will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection. Yes Sir is clear on official Bhb figures but he was entered yesterday and his best efforts have come with a lot more cut in the ground and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Of the remainder All Star is from a top yard and looks sure to run his race but for the winner we return to Karelian who has plenty of scope for improvement.
