        Verdict

        Even though he is creeping up the weights Cold Turkey has done nothing to suggest that his run of good form is about to end and he is preferred over Barry Island and Gig Harbour - although Zonergem will no doubt pop in again one day and he could go well for each way players. Lygeton Lad also fits a similar profile as a fast finisher but he has a bit to prove on the terms of the race and is opposable on the balance of form shown at this trip. Whereas Internationalguest and Gallant Boy also have a little to prove on recent form and are also passed over today. Therefore, the progressive Cold Turkey looks to be the safest option as he has no questions to answer regarding the trip, going or form. Simon Whitworth is also a very positive jockey booking for Gary Moore's charge and it will be no surprise if he can guide Cold Turkey to his fifth course and distance win.
