In depth
Verdict
Qualitair Wings gets the vote here with Fossgate and Polar Dawn rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Stevedore and although she has a penalty for that win she won with plenty in hand and from a good draw she is taken to win again. Fossgate rates the main danger as he is another that time out winner but he has been done no favours by the draw and for that reason he is opposed. Ramsgill is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he looks vulnerable off this mark. Polar Dawn looks to be on a handy mark and could go well at a price but he is hard to win with. Of the remainder Blue Quiver showed improved form last time out and if he improved again he would have definite place claims but in a race where the market may well tell all for the winner we return to Qualitair Wings.
