      In depth

      Verdict

      Maunby Reveller gets the vote here with Esquillon, and Logger Rhythm rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fourth behind Smart Boy Prince last time out, but he is sure to strip fitter here and with new tactics likely to be employed he looks the one to be on. Esquillon rates the main danger on her latest fourth behind Beaumont Girl but she has given the impression in the past that she barley sees out this trip and for that reason she is opposed. Logger Rhythm is another that could go well on his latest second behind Makarim, especially as this longer trip looks sure to suit. Beauchamp Twist is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but in a trappy affair for the winner we return to Maunby Reveller who is given one last chance to get his head in front.
