Verdict
Orswell Crest, Totheroadyouvgone and Even More all have claims here and the vote is given to Orswell Crest. The selection came up against the progressive Colonel Frank last time out and as he faces nothing of that calibre here he should go well. Colonel Frank¿s form looks rock solid and Oneway has since gone on to frank the form from their recent meeting, so it was no disgrace for our selection to finish second behind that Brendan Powell inmate last time. Totheroadyouvegone is in the form of his life and he represents a live danger as he goes chasing his hat-trick. He won well last time when beating Sacrifice and this Irish raider will not have any problem getting this longer trip. Even More will have conditions to suit but he was let down by his jumping last time and he has been a touch disappointing of late. Uncle Mick is the other to consider, but for the winner we return to Orswell Crest.
