Verdict
Air Mail, Red Delerium and Crusoe are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and we will give the vote to Air Mail. The selection has been in fair form of late without winning but he need only run up to the mark which saw him finish second behind Wessex in as seller last time to score. Red Delerium rates the main danger. However he was very disappointing last time out so he can not be put forward with any confidence but his table are in better form now. Crusoe is another that could go well on his best form and he has ran as if not staying the nine furlong trip on his last two runs. The return to this trip should suit and he should be noted in the market. Tinian has dropped to a handy mark and is another that could go well at a price but in a race that throws up more questions than answers for the winner we return to Air Mail.
