Verdict
Go Figure, Miss Pross and Kathuna are three against the field in a trappy finale and the narrow vote is given to Miss Pross. The selection was a fair second behind Devil's Run last time out, that form looks solid and off the same mark here she looks a value bet. Go Figure rates the main danger as he dead heated with Gold Gun last time out, however this looks tougher and he will need to improve again to defy this higher mark. Kathuna is another worthy of respect as she hails from a shrewd in form Irish yard and she should be monitored in the market off her light weight. Of the remainder Sculastic has conditions to suit and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Miss Pross.
