Verdict

Carlys Quest gets the confident vote with Verchoyles Lad and Red Gauntlet rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair third under similar conditions behind Jack Dawson last time out and he need only reproduce that effort to score in what looks an easier race. Verchoyles Lad rates the main danger he has won his last two races in good style in his native Ireland and is from a shrewd yard so is worth noting in the market. Red Gauntlet is another worthy of respect he won a hunter chase in good style last time out when defeating Trade Dispute but this looks tougher. Of the remainder Allez Scotia has shown a modicum of ability has shown a modicum of ability and has place claims but for the winner we return to Carlys Quest.
