        Verdict

        Out After Dark, Skyharbor, Tregarron and Kool Acclaim are the four to concentrate on in the opener and the vote is given to Kool Acclaim. The selection hails from a shrewd yard and has run well on both of her last two starts. She was the subject of plenty of market confidence last time when she narrowly beat Antigua Bay at Yarmouth and if the market vibes are again positive then the hint should be taken. Skyharbor and Out After Dark are closely-matched on their recent run at Sandown when the latter prevailed. Skyharbor is weighted to reverse the placings here but Out After Dark looks the more progressive of the two and he could be the one that will give our selection the most to do. Tregarron finished last in that same Yarmouth race and will have to improve significantly to make the frame and he is better over slightly further so is readily opposed. Bo McGinty is from an in-form yard and looks the best of the remainder, but we will stick with Kool Acclaim as our idea of the winner.
