    Verdict

    Having A Ball, Mister Benji and Rubilini are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and the narrow vote is given to Having A Ball. The selection was a fair second behind Not Now Lewis last time out, that form looks solid and off the same mark here he looks a value bet. Mister Benji rates the main danger on his latest second behind General Feeling but again he looks vulnerable under top weight. Rubilini won well last time when beating Pawn In Life but this looks much tougher. Of the remainder Wodhill Schnaps best form is over a shorter trip and for the winner we return to Having A Ball.
