Verdict
Keisha Kayleigh, Sunnyside Tom and Holiday Cocktail are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and the narrow vote is given to Keisha Kayleigh. The selection was a good second off this mark behind King Of The moors last time out, she again has conditions to suit and from a fair draw she looks a value bet. Sunnyside Tom rates the main danger on his latest second behind Moheebb. He looks sure to be suited by this longer trip and he should be watched in the market. Holiday Cocktail has been in good form over hurdles of late and returns to the flat of what remains a fair mark. However he was disappointing last time out but he will appreciate this faster ground. Ming Vase showed signs of a revival behind Birkside last time and he could go well at a price off his featherweight. Jackie Kiely is well weighted on turf compared to her all-weather mark but is hard to win with. Of the others Frosty Night was a fair third behind Ballet Boy last time and should appreciate this shorter trip but in a race that throws up more questions than answers for the winner we return to Keisha Kayleigh.
