Verdict
A large field goes to post for the first on the card but the principals look to be Just Midas, Dance Of Life and Very Tasty and the vote goes to Just Midas. The selection has been well beaten in much better handicaps of late and all his wins have come in this grade. He will not mind the ground and despite top weight he will be hard to beat. Dance Of Life rates the main danger he won well in this grade last time out when defeating Young Owen and although he has a penalty for that win he has definite place claims. Very Tasty is another that could go well he was a fair third behind Feanor last time and prior to that he had won in this grade he is another with place claims off what looks a fair mark. In Discussion represents shrewd connections and although he has not run for 278 days he is worth noting in the market. Of the remainder Lone Soldier is a course and distance winner that shaped as if returning to form when third behind Books Way last time but for the winner we return to Just Midas.
