Verdict
Issaquah gets the confident vote in the finale despite his penalty with Georgian King and Salveo rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Kentucky Sky with plenty in hand that form looks rock solid and despite his penalty under conditions that suit he looks the one to be on. Georgian King rates the main danger as he hails from a yard that does well in this sphere and is a Overbury gelding out of an unraced mare and will not need to be anything special to take a hand in the finish. Salveo was a fair second on his debut behind Massasoit and is sure to improve so he should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Zatochi is another well bred sort but he should be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time and for the winner we return to Issaquah.
