In depth
Verdict
Bushido gets the confident vote with Milord Lescribaa and Balinahinch Castle rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fourth in a much better race behind Chivite last time out and he need only run up to that mark to win this. Milord Lescribaa rates the main danger as he is one of the least exposed in the field has scope for improvement and is from a top yard so should be noted in the market. Balinahinch Castle is another worthy of respect on his best form but he was very disappointing behind Native Ivy last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Hey Boy is from a yard in form and is another to note in the market but his over all form leaves him with a little to find and for the winner we return to Bushido
