Verdict
ONE MORE ROUND is our selection in the opener with Don Pele and Scarlet Oak others for the shortlist. David Evans veteran isn't quite as able as he once was but races of this nature cater for him nicely and his overall form is consistent enough. Don Pele has largely raced on Southwell's fibresand of late though has won on polytrack in the past. He meets One More Round off level terms though needs to reverse Kempton form. C'Mon You Irons is inconsistent but is more than capable of landing something of this nature. Scarlet Oak has a welcome return to six having raced over five recently. Hart Of Gold has to be forgiven a stinker last time out and invariably pulls too hard for his own good. Mind Alert has his own ideas about the game but if in a good frame of mind, he wouldn't be a forlorn hope at big odds. A typical seller by the track's standards and One More Round is the selection on account of his consistency in this grade.
