        Verdict

        Polish Power, Musashi and MY FRIEND FRITZ look the three to concentrate on here and the vote goes to the last mentioned. The selection did not see out the trip at Kempton last time so that disappointing run can be forgiven, but he has won over this course and distance and he had previously been in good form at this venue. He has a good amateur on board in Marie King and he looks the one to beat. Polish Power has to be of interest but he was all-out to score last time and this trip does tend to stretch his stamina to the limit. Musashi is another who is unproven over this trip and all his best form so far has been at Great Leighs. Rawdon has ability but he is a quirky sort and he is not one to place a great deal of faith in. Mick Easterby is shrewd and Oliver Greenall is a very capable pilot so Realism could go well at a price. This is a moderate contest and the narrow vote goes to My Friend Fritz.
