        Verdict

        The booking of Kieren Fallon for Barking Mad is a big positive for the Michael Bell-trained gelding and the partnership are selected in preference to Jools, who has solid claims on the best of his form, and the unexposed Ultimata, who looked a useful prospect when winning her only start to date and can be expected to be primed and ready to go despite her long lay off. Solo Flight is another consistent sort for each way-players to consider as he goes well here and has no questions to answer regarding his ability to see out the trip. However, like James Caird, he also has a fair absence to overcome and he will do very well to win a competitive heat like this from the top of the weights. Therefore, we return to Barking Mad as the best option now that he has got a run behind him this season. That, combined with the fact that Fallon has already ridden him to victory twice from only three rides in the past, only enhances Barking Mad's claims and he looks sure to make a bold bid to land a second course and distance victory if all goes to plan today.
