        Verdict

        Bahri Sheen finally opened his account when scoring over course and distance last time but is only one of several with a chance in a wide-open race. Arabian Flight and West Leake also have decent claims on the back of recent placed efforts while the likes of Bowstar and Community should be winning at this level soon. Ermyntrude is not out of this either but was engaged to run here yesterday so a speculative vote goes to CAPE CROSSING, who is less exposed than most and expected to improve on his handicap debut.
