In depth
Verdict
A wide open seller here with many in with chances on their best form but the principals look to be Protocol, Lone Solider and Rayware Boy and the tentative vote goes to the last named. The selection has plenty of ability but does not always like to use it. However he was a fair fourth behind Minivet last time and with the first time blinkers replacing the usual visor he could go well at a price. Lone Solider won well last time out when defeating Always Rainbows but that form has since taken a few knocks and for that reason he is opposed. Protocol is another that could go well he won well last time when defeating Broughtons Mill in good style but will find this harder under his penalty. Of the remainder Were Not Stoppin was a fair third behind Minstrel Hall last time and is another with place claims but for the winner we return to Rayware Boy.
