In depth
Verdict
Another large field goes to post for this contest but on closer inspection not many can be given a serious chance of winning and the main protagonists look to be Bond Brooklyn, Pick Of The Crop and Considine and the vote goes to Bond Brooklyn. Bryan Smart¿s inmate was a good second behind Vikings Bay last time out and that form has since been franked this looks easier and he will be hard to beat. Pick Of The Crop rates the main danger he was a fair fifth behind Celtic Heroine last time out and the drop back to six furlongs is sure to suit. Considine is also worthy of respect he is one of the least exposed in the field and showed improved form when fourth behind Red Sahara last time a reproduction of that effort would give him definite place claims. Of the remainder Atlantic Breeze will not have to be anything special to make a winning debut but we are happy to side withBond Brooklyn.
