        Verdict

        Amazin, gets the confident vote with St Andrews Storm and Triple Zero rating the main dangers. The selection is well in on official bhb figures and from what looks a good draw he will be hard to beat. St Andrews Storm rates the main danger but jockey bookings suggest that he is the stables second string and for that reason he is opposed;osed. Triple Zero is another dropping in grade and could go well at a price but her best form is with more cut in the ground. Of the remainder Courageously is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with and for the winner we return to Amazin.
