Verdict
Smart Savannah, Your Advantage and Saafend Rocket are thee against the field in another tough race to call for punters the nomination goes to Smart Savannah despite top weight. The selection won well last time out when defeating Just Superb and although he has a penalty for that win he will be hard to beat with conditions again to suit. Your Advantage rates the main danger he was a fair sort on the flat in his native country but had been disappointing over hurdles until winning last time out in first time blinkers when defeating The Local last time. He will need to improve to win this off his revised mark but he could do so if the blinkers work again. Saafend Rocket is another that could go well on his best form but he has had a busy season and he may be over the top as he was very disappointing last time out and his best form is on fast ground. Of the remainder Maldoun is drooping in the weights and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Smart Savannah.
