        Verdict

        Another tough race to call here for punters but the principals look to be Palarshan, Log On Intersky and Farmer Jack and the vote goes to Palarshan. The gelding from the Henry Daley yard was a big disappointment last time out but he may well of needed the run and he is dropping in grade here and with conditions to suit he will be hard to beat. Log On Intersky rates the main danger he won well last time out when defeating Sir Storm but this is more competitive and he will find it harder under his penalty. St Pirran is also worthy of respect he won well over course and distance last time out when defeating Wahiba Sands if he could reproduce that effort he would be a danger to all but he is not the most consistent and is opposed for that reason Farmer Jack would be a danger to all on his best form of a couple of seasons ago but he has been a shadow of his former self of late.Of the remainder Bleu Superbe is from a yard in top form and is with noting in the market, but for the winner we return to Palarshan.
