        Verdict

        Lorikeet, Is It Me and Lysander's Quest are three against the field in a competitive finale and the narrow vote is given to Lorikeet. The selection won well last time out when beating Kavi and although having a penalty for that win he again has conditions to suit and he is taken to defy the handicapper. Is It Me rates the main danger on his latest victory over Orsolomio. He has since been in good form over hurdles and with his yard in good form he should be closely watched in the market. Lysander's Quest is another that could go well on his latest second behind Josh You Are but that form has since been let down and he looks opposable on that basis. Noble Minstrel is another last time out winner that could go well but this looks tougher and he could be vulnerable under his penalty. Salut Saint Cloud has dropped to a handy mark and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to the progressive Lorikeet.
