Verdict
It is hard to get away from Moarban, second on his debut at Newbury to the mightily-impressive Trade Fair. He is taken to win this and frank the impression that the winner left that day. Parkland has to concede weight to the field. His form is solid if unspectacular (he beat Arakan, who runs in the 4:20pm race on this card) and the selection should be too good for him. Bluegrass Boy shaped with plenty of promise on his debut and Audience, Desert Opal and Passando are maybe worth a look in the market, but Mick Channon's Bahhare colt is the TEAMtalk choice.
