        Verdict

        Moto is taken to land the finale at the expense of Franksalot and Snow Bunting. The selection carries a six pound penalty for his latest success at Ayr. Prior to that he was in winning form at the same track in July so is clearly a horse making hay while the sun shines. In between those wins she has not been out of the first three so is ultra consistant and is therefore a horse to follow. Franksalot is fitted with cheek pieces for the first time and is burdened with top weight to carry. He did run well on his penultimate run at Ayr when second to Roman History but has since disappointed so is to be treated with caution. Snow Bunting landed himself in the winners enclosure at Ayr back in June but has since failed to trouble the judge and still looks within the grip of the handicapper for the time being. So for the winner we return to Moto.
