Verdict
A competitive field goes to post for the first on the card and we will take a chance on Billy Whip Top. The colt from the Tim Easterby yard was a fair third behind Bachelor Of Arts last time this more galloping track should suit band he will be hard to beat with conditions in his favour.Piccolo Prince rates the main danger on his latest third behind Louisiade and if he improves again he will not be far away. Out Of Mind would have a chance on her best run which saw her being third behind Lady Piste. However that winner has since been well beaten. Branston Melody is another that could go well but she was slightly disappointing last time. Of the remainder Paartardias Magic ran well on his debut and is sure to improve.
