In depth
Verdict
Gallego gets the confident in the opener with Mister Benedictine and Bollywood rating the main dangers. The selection was a good seconnd behind The Flying Cowboy on ground softer than ideal last time out. He remains on a fair mark and with the race looking sure to be run to suit he will be hard to beat. Mister Benedictine rates the main danger on his latest second behind Corrib but his best form is over a longer trip and he is taken on with this in mind. Bollywood is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Tequilla Sheila but consistency is not his strong point and he looks opposable on that basis. Of the remainder Colchium is from an in-form yard and has dropped to a handy mark so could go well at a price but Gallego has plenty of ticks in the right boxes and he looks the one to be on.
