        Verdict

        This is anybody’s race with a maze of collateral form. The speculative vote goes to SEAMSTER, who went close at Bath before finishing ahead of Musharrif and Pea Shooter at Doncaster. But David Loughnane's charge was a length behind First Bombardment last time and the latter had earlier finished in front of Orient Class at Newcastle when Excessable was third. Singeur drops down a grade though was beaten by Kibaar when the latter went close at York last year while the consistent Fruit Salad returns to action having run well off today’s mark at Nottingham in October.
