      Verdict

      Top Mark gets the confident vote here with Samarinda and Katiypour rating the main dangers. The selecton won well last time when beating Night Curu and although rising in the weights he again has conditions to suit and he looks the one to be on. Samarinda rates the main danger on his best form but he ran as if the handicaper had caught up with him last time out and looks opposable on that basis. Katiypour was a fair fourth behind Sailor King last time and is another with place claims but he is hard to win with . Of the remainder Bee Stinger looks vulnerable under top weight while Don Pietro is sure to have come on for his latest start but for the winner we return to Top Mark.
