Verdict
A difficult race to call here with some disappointing sorts in opposition including Burkees Graw, Bluemoon Hitman and Fisher's Dream and we will take a chance on Burkees Graw. The gelding from the Dandy Nicholls yard would be hard to beat on his third behind Emaradia, and although he was disappointing on this surface last time out he is given one last chance as he has plenty in hand on official ratings. Bluemoon Hitman rates the main danger he was he was a fair third behind Alizar last time and if the selection does not run up to his best he looks the one to capitalize. Fisher's Dream could also go well but he was very disappointing last time. Of the remainder Smartstar Princess won well last time when defeating Velvet Touch and at least she is in form but we are happy to side with Burkees Graw.
